Numbers can be grouped into congruence classes based on remainders when divided by a positive integer (modulus). Congruences are represented with the symbol "≡," and two numbers are considered congruent if their difference is a multiple of the modulus.
In this video, we provide examples of congruences, both true and false, and show how to check them using the subtraction and division method. We also introduces the concept of modular arithmetic (explained visually with "clock arithmetic," and the notation for congruences, such as "A ≡ B mod n."
