Abstract: Let $f(x)inmathbbZ[x]$ be a nonconstant polynomial. Let $n,k$ and $c$ be integers such that $nge1$ and $kge2$. An integer $a$ is called an $f$-exunit in the ring $mathbb{Z}_n$ of residue classes modulo $n$ if $gcd(f(a),n)=1$. In this paper, we use the principle of cross-classification to derive an explicit formula for the number ${mathcalN}_{k,f,c}(n)$ of solutions $(x_1,\mathrm{...},x_k)$ of the congruence $x_1+\mathrm{...}+x_{k}equivcpmodn$ with all $x_i$ being $f$-exunits in the ring $mathbb{Z}_n$. This extends a recent result of Anand {it et al.} [On a question of $f$-exunits in $mathbbZ/nmathbbZ$, {it Arch. Math. (Basel)} {�f 116} (2021), 403-409]. We derive a more explicit formula for ${mathcalN}_{k,f,c}(n)$ when $f(x)$ is linear or quadratic.
