If a no. Is divided by 3,7&11 the remainders are 1,6&5 respectively.
Then find the number.
:
The number is 181, I couldn't come up with a reasonable paper and pencil method.
I put the following equations into the my graphing a calc and scanned the table to find 3 integer solutions for y, for a single value of x
y1 =
y2 =
y3 =
:
When x = 181
y1 = 60
y2 = 25
y3 = 16
