-------------------------------------------
three-digit whole number. It is divisible by 5. Its hundreds digit is 8. It is divisible by 3. Its tens digit is less than its ones digit.
---------------------------------------------


Possibilities
8T0, or 8T5, in which T is still not known, but you know (given ) that 8T5 must be divisible by 3.

Also, " Its tens digit is less than its ones digit."
Possibilities now
805, 815, 825, 835, 845
WHICH of these is divisible by 3?





825
