........have to say when I saw you made me a 'playground' didn't think it would be this hard!
I am now assuming this is RSA encryption algorithm. Using pq=851 as the public key and e=5 as the public key exponent?
I hate maths.
You dont want to tell me the two prime numbers you used to get pq do you

Correct.
If you really want, but they are quite easy to find by guesswork.You dont want to tell me the two prime numbers you used to get pq do you
But assuming you're going to use a computer, pq is so small here that it's easy to brute-force the decryption exponent without needing to go through the steps relying on factorizing 851.
Ah ha so I am thinking 23 and 37 are the prime numbers. The totient is 792...so now I have to work out e * d = 1 (mod (792)) .
Did I mention I really hate maths
