Question: Exercise 4 : ( homework ) Four siblings receive, as an inheritance, the contents of a safe deposit box in a bank. Access is granted

Exercise 4: (homework) Four siblings receive, as an inheritance, the contents
of a safe deposit box in a bank. Access is granted via an 8 digits key. Since the
4 are greedy, the will executor must design a mechanism that forces the siblings
to cooperate in order to gain access to the safe.
1. Explain an appropriate mechanism using the Chinese remainder theorem.
2. If the key is 87654321, give the information that each sibling receives (the
expected answer is 4 pairs of positive integers).
Expected time to solve: 25
Exercise 5: (homework) If the four siblings from Exercise 4 received the
following pairs of values:
59,13,61,14,71,4,73,24.
What is the key to the deposit box?. (You may need to slightly modify class
GameChineseRemainderTheorem2 given in Blackboard in order to compute
the solution).
Expected time to solve: 30
