Coprime solutions to ax≡b (mod n)

It is well known that a congruence ax≡b (mod n) has a solution if and only if , and, if the condition is satisfied, the number of incongruent solutions equals . In 2010, Alomair, Clark and Poovendran proved that the congruence ax≡b (mod n) has a solution coprime to n if and only if , as an auxiliary...
