Oct 16, 2012 at 16:43	comment	added	DonAntonio		That is the multiplicative inverse since $$11\cdot 6=66=1+5\cdot 13=1\pmod {13}$$
Oct 16, 2012 at 16:42	comment	added	Alex		@student.llama No, that's it! The modular multiplicative inverse of 11 modulo 13 is 6.

Oct 16, 2012 at 16:40	comment	added	student.llama		So, for $11b \equiv 1 (mod 13)$ we get $b=6$ This doesn't seem like the multiplicative inverse. Where do I go from here? Thanks.
