2x≡1(mod 5)⇒x≡3(mod 5)⇒x=5a+3  3(5a+3)=15a+9≡a+2≡2(mod 7)  ⇒a≡0(mod 7)⇒a=7b⇒x=35b+3  4(35b+3)=140b+12≡8b+1≡1(mod 11)  8b≡0(mod 11)⇒b≡0(mod 11)⇒b=11c  ⇒x=385c+3, c∈Z

$$\mathrm{2x}\equiv\mathrm{1}\left(\mathrm{mod}\:\mathrm{5}\right)\Rightarrow\mathrm{x}\equiv\mathrm{3}\left(\mathrm{mod}\:\mathrm{5}\right)\Rightarrow\mathrm{x}=\mathrm{5a}+\mathrm{3} \\ $$ $$\mathrm{3}\left(\mathrm{5a}+\mathrm{3}\right)=\mathrm{15a}+\mathrm{9}\equiv\mathrm{a}+\mathrm{2}\equiv\mathrm{2}\left(\mathrm{mod}\:\mathrm{7}\right) \\ $$ $$\Rightarrow\mathrm{a}\equiv\mathrm{0}\left(\mathrm{mod}\:\mathrm{7}\right)\Rightarrow\mathrm{a}=\mathrm{7b}\Rightarrow\mathrm{x}=\mathrm{35b}+\mathrm{3} \\ $$ $$\mathrm{4}\left(\mathrm{35b}+\mathrm{3}\right)=\mathrm{140b}+\mathrm{12}\equiv\mathrm{8b}+\mathrm{1}\equiv\mathrm{1}\left(\mathrm{mod}\:\mathrm{11}\right) \\ $$ $$\mathrm{8b}\equiv\mathrm{0}\left(\mathrm{mod}\:\mathrm{11}\right)\Rightarrow\mathrm{b}\equiv\mathrm{0}\left(\mathrm{mod}\:\mathrm{11}\right)\Rightarrow\mathrm{b}=\mathrm{11c} \\ $$ $$\Rightarrow\mathrm{\color{mathred}{x}}\color{mathred}{=}\mathrm{\color{mathred}{3}\color{mathred}{8}\color{mathred}{5}\color{mathred}{c}}\color{mathred}{+}\mathrm{\color{mathred}{3}}\color{mathred}{,}\color{mathred}{\:}\mathrm{\color{mathred}{c}}\color{mathred}{\in}\mathbb{\color{mathred}{Z}} \\ $$
