Chinese Remainder Theorem - Sun Tzu (3rd to 5th century AD, China)
This program solves for X for the set of three linear congruence equations:
X = A mod B
X = C mod D
X = E mod F
B, D, and F are pairwise co-prime. B and D have a GCD of 1, B and F have a GCD of 1, and D and F have a GCD of 1.
A general solution takes the form
X = x1 * D * F * A + x2 * B * F * C + x3 * B * D * E
where (one method of solution)
D * F * x1 = 1 mod B
B * F * x2 = 1 mod D
B * D * x3 = 1 mod F
The program returns the solution X ± n*(B*D*F), X is the smallest positive integer and n is an integer.

Examples:
X = 3 mod 8
X = 1 mod 9
X = 4 mod 11
X = 235 ± 792*n
{...-557, 235, 1027, 1819...}
X = 4 mod 5
X = 1 mod 7
X = 11 mod 16
X = 379 ± 560*n
{... -181, 379, 939, 1499...}
