# Modular Division :
# An efficient algorithm for dividing b by a modulo n.
# GCD ( Greatest Common Divisor ) or HCF ( Highest Common Factor )
# Given three integers a, b, and n, such that gcd(a,n)=1 and n>1, the algorithm should return an integer x such that
# 0≤x≤n1, and b/a=x(modn) (that is, b=ax(modn)).
# Theorem:
# a has a multiplicative inverse modulo n iff gcd(a,n) = 1
# This find x = b*a^(-1) mod n
# Uses ExtendedEuclid to find the inverse of a
