Original question and givens

Use fixed positive modulus n=3, natural inputs a=20, b=26, c=41, d=50. Give (n, [a,b], [c,d], both a≡b and c≡d?, [(a+c) mod n,(b+d) mod n], sum congruence?, premises imply conclusion?).

G001 — Use fixed positive modulus n=3, natural inputs a=20, b=26, c=41, d=50. Give (n, [a,b], [c,d], both a≡b and c≡d?, [(a+c) mod n,(b+d) mod n], sum congruence?, premises imply conclusion?).

Definition and scope

Use the original question domain, assumptions and cited MKO definitions. This item has second-context mathematical and bilingual review, with the model, answer and every arithmetic step independently recomputed from the original parameters; the source question remains a candidate.
