This solution comes from Andrei from School No. 205, Bucharest, Romania.

To solve this problem I followed the following steps:

- associating to the letters of the alphabet numbers between 0 and 25, I transformed the coded message into a set of pairs of numbers (α',β')

- I solved the system of equations for (α,β) in terms of (α',β').

- I used the same association as in the first step, and I transformed the set of numbers (α,β) into letters, and I found the message.

The association is:
  abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz
  012345678910111213141516171819202122232425

For each pair of numbers (α',β') I have to solve the system to determine (α,β)
α' =α+3βmod26   (1) β' =5β   mod26   (2)

I start from the last equation:
β= 1 5 β'mod26

To determine 1/5 (mod 26), I first constructed the table of multiplication for 5 (mod 26) to see where I obtain 1. As 21 multiplied by 5 gives 1 (mod 26) it follows that 1/5 (mod 26) is 21. This means:
β=21β'mod26   (3)

and for α I obtained successively
α=α'-3β=α'-3×21β'=α'-11β'mod26

that is
α=α'+15β'mod26   (4).

Now, the sequence of numbers (α',β') is transformed by equations (3) and (4) into the sequence (α,β)

The message could be read as the quotation from Enstein talking about himself as a mathematician: 'I have no special gift. I am only passionately curious'.
