We need to find a minimum of $v$ in :
$$N = du + sv$$
where $N, d,s$ are given positive integer, $u$ and $v$ are arbitrary positive integers.
For example, $19 = 5cdot 2 + 3cdot 3$ where $d,u,s,v = 5, 2, 3, 3$ resp.
How can we find a minimum of such a $v$, and if it may not exist?
I know very basic modulo properties, but they do not give direct answer.
