Definition used:
Congruence.
Let m be an integer greater than 1. If xand yare integers, then x is congruent to y modulo m if x — y is divisible by m. It can be represented as x=y±odm. This relation is called as congruence modulo m.
Calculation:
Given numbers are p = 83,q = —23, and m = 6.
For being congruence 83 + 23 = 106 has to be divisible by 6.
Note that, 106 = 17*6 +4.
Here, remainder is 4.
Therefore, 106 is not divisible by 6.
Therefore, when p = 83, q=-23, and m =6, pq±odm.
