Extended Euclidean Algorithm: Expressing GCD as a Linear Combination
The extended Euclidean Algorithm traces back the steps to represent the greatest common divisor (GCD) as a linear combination of the original integers. It provides a method to find coefficients such that their linear combination equals the GCD.

About this video
The extended Euclidean Algorithm reverses the steps to write the greatest common divisor (GCD) as a linear combination of the original whole numbers. It has many applications in number theory and abstract algebra. "Friendly Introduction to Number Theory": https://amzn.to/3Ixo9Lq
