A book has 136 pages. Each page has the same number of words, and each page has no more than 100 words on it. The number of words in the book is congruent to 184, modulo 203. How many words are on each page?

136n mod 203 =184, solve for n

 

Using CRT + MMI

 

n =203m  +  73,  where m =0, 1, 2, 3......etc.

 

Therefore, the number of words on each page == 73
