Calculation of 0xc6

m(x) = 0x11b = 100011011 = x^8 + x^4 + x^3 + x + 1
a(x) = 0xc6 =  11000110 = x^7 + x^6 + x^2 + x
m(x) = (x + 1) * a(x) + (x^6 + x^4 + 1)

Calculation of 0xc6-1 in the finite field GF(28)

01010001 = 00000001 * 100011011 + 00000011 * 11000110
00110101 = 00000011 * 100011011 + 00000100 * 11000110
00001110 = 00000100 * 100011011 + 00001111 * 11000110
00000011 = 00010111 * 100011011 + 00110111 * 11000110
00000001 = 01001111 * 100011011 + 11100100 * 11000110
00000000 = 11000110 * 100011011 + 100011011 * 11000110

a-1(x) = x^7 + x^6 + x^5 + x^2 = 11100100 = 0xe4

The calculation of 0xc6-1 is made with the Extended Euclidean algorithm. Instead of normal division and multiplication you need to use Polynomialdivision and Polynomialmultiplication.
