Find integers $x$ and $y$ such that $\\simplify{h={sa}*x+{sb}*y }$

$x=$ [[0]]

\n

$y=$ [[1]]

\n

If you use the extended Euclidean Algorithm as shown in the course then you will obtain the required values of $x$ and $y$.

\n

You can check your result by using the Maple command igcdex({sa},{sb},'A','B'); A,B

We use the extended Euclidean Algorithm to get:

{mdescextGCD(sa,sb,1,0,0,1)}

Hence $h=\\var{hcf}$ and we have

That is,
