Question: Task 1 . Bojan's public key for the RSA system is ( n , e ) , where n = 8 9 9 and e

Task 1.
Bojan's public key for the RSA system is (n, e), where n =899 and e =23.
1. Find the decryption exponent d (assuming you know the split of the number n =29\times 31).
2. Could Bojan choose an even number for the encryption exponent e, for example e =4?
3. Bojan sends his public key to Anita by email. Oskar intercepts the letter, changes the encryption exponent e =23 to e0=17 and forwards the letter to Anita. Anita z encrypts the text b with the key (n, e0) and sends it to Bojan. Of course, Bojan cannot decipher the message and sends Anita his public key again. Anita encrypts message b again, this time with the key (n, e) and sends it to Bojan. Oskar intercepted both of Anita's letters. Describe exactly how he can calculate the text b (assuming he does not know the factorization of the number n or the decoding of the exponent d).
