Question:

Consider the following scheme:

1. Pick an odd number, \(E\).

2. Pick two prime numbers, \(P\) and \(Q\), where \((P-1)(Q-1)-1\) is evenly divisible by \(E\).

3. Multiply \(P\) and \(Q\) to get \(N\).

4. Calculate \(D=\frac{(P-1)(Q-1)(E-1)+1}{E}\)

Is this scheme equivalent to RSA? Show why or why not.
