pgp learn difficulty: 4/7 mixed author: system unsolved

PGP-style RSA cipher. The public key (n, e) and ciphertext are provided. Factor n to decrypt.

DATA
Public Key N 200099
Public Key E 65537
Ciphertext 163404
Algorithm RSA
Key Size Bits 18
Hint RSA: factor n → p, q. phi = (p-1)*(q-1). d ≡ e^{-1} (mod phi). m ≡ c^d (mod n). Letter from m mod 26.
Answer Format single lowercase letter (decrypt the RSA ciphertext)
