How to solve $a^7 \equiv a \pmod {42}$ involving congruences?
$$a^7 \equiv a \pmod {42}.$$ There is no use telling you all what and how much I tried because I cannot even understand the problem itself left alone attempting it.
Solutions to $x^n \equiv x \pmod {n}$ for composite $n$.
Nov 27, 2025 · By the Chinese remainder theorem, $x^n\equiv x\pmod n$ if and only if the congruences $x^n\equiv x\pmod {p_j^ {r_j}}$ are simultaneously true for $1\le j\le m$.
