11.3-11.4, Due November 19

Difficult: So I understand what a linear combination is, it's just difficult to relate the connection between gcd's and linear combinations intuitively. Could we discuss more about linear combinations?

Mostly I have all these theorems all floating around in my head and would love some help making sense of it all.

I do understand the Euclidean Algorithm, however, I'm unsure about the method of undoing it to arrive back at the gcd(a,b)=as+bt part. Perhaps another example of this?

Interesting: This chapter is way interesting!! I was taking four digit numbers and finding the greatest common divisor using this method because it was so handy! I do love the Euclidean Algorithm
