So, the division algorithm states that if a and b are integers with a>0 then there exist c and d integers such that
0<=d<a
b=ac+d
d and c are unique
Now I don't understand d and c being unique. For example 4*3 + 3 = 15 where a=4 c=3 d=3 b=15
c and d are not unique, or maybe I don't know what unique means?
