number theory - How to find integer linear combination

The question said:


Use the Euclidean Algorithm to find gcd $(1207,569)$ and write $(1207,569)$ as an integer linear combination of $1207$ and $569$


I proceeded as follows:



$$ 12007 = 569(2) +69$$


$$569 = 69(8) +17$$


$$69 = 17(4) +1$$


$$17 = 1(17) + 0$$


Thus the gcd = 1


The part I am having problems with is how calculate and write it was a linear combination. Can someone help?
