There is a solution that is already provided.

I ask that you check the solution correctness, and clarity.

If there is a proof, please do your best to explain the proof clearer, with words.

If you find an error , mistake, or something could be "more elegant" than please rework the entire solution.

PLEASE FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS:

1. No programming
2. Show all steps
3. Explain your solution process in words
4. Proofs need to be explained primarily in words. If there is a lot of algebra, explain the process in words as well.
5. ANSWER ALL PARTS OF THE QUESTION

For every nonnegative integer n, there are unique nonnegative integers i and j such that

and

To see this, consider division of n by 43, and let i and j denote the quotient and the remainder, respectively:

j is an element of Z43, and n is said to be congruent modulo 43 to j, which we could express by saying that n is EQUIVALENT to j (modulo 43). (In YOUR notation, we would say that "n = j in Z43.")
