Question: Brians public key for RSA encryption is n = 91, e = 5. Abigail has encoded a message m using Brians public key and sent

Brians public key for RSA encryption is n = 91, e = 5. Abigail has encoded a message m using Brians public key and sent the resulting ciphertext c = 35 to Brian. You are trying to figure out what Abigails message m was using a chosen-ciphertext attack. (a) You start by choosing the value r = 23. What is the multiplicative inverse of r mod n? (b) Next, you need to use r to create an innocuous-seeming fake ciphertext, and to get Brian to decode it for you. Calculate the number c' c re (mod n). (c) You have sent c' to Brian and they have decoded the message. You somehow convince Brian to share the resulting plaintext m'= 56 with you. Since you know that m'= m r and you know r1 (the multiplicative inverse of r mod n), you should be able to calculate m. What is m? Second time I have had to use my limited amount of questions for this problem. Could you please find someone to at least attempt it????
