 and a remainder of 8 when divided by 11.
:
the positive integer is 393
:
The way I did it:
entered 3 equations into the TI83 and looked for an x value that gives an integer 
value for y in all three equation
:
Enter these three equations, check the table
y1 = {{{(x-3)/5}}}
y2 = {{{(x-6)/9}}}
y3 = {{{(x-8)/11}}}
