Method of successive substitution
{{Original research|date=September 2014}}⏎
In [[modular arithmetic]], the '''method of successive substitution''' is a method of solving problems of [[simultaneous congruences]] by using the definition of the congruence equation. It is commonly applied in cases where the conditions of the [[Chinese remainder theorem]] are not satisfied.

There is also an unrelated numerical-analysis method of successive substitution, a [[randomized algorithm]] used for [[root finding]], an application of [[fixed-point iteration]].
