Dear student,
please find the soln below
n/7 = p + 1 as rem
n/9 = q + 2 as rem
n/11 = r + 3 as rem.
Next multiply n by 2 then
2n/7 = p + 2 as rem
2n/9 = q + 4 as rem
2n/11 = r + 6 as rem.
If you add 5 to 2n we get
(2n+5)/7 - (p+1) + 0 rem
(2n+5/9 = (q+1) + 0 as rem
(2n+5)/11 = (r+1) + 0 as rem.
This shows that (2n+5) should be divisible by 7, 9 and 11. Which means that (2n+5) is the LCM of 7, 9 and 11 which is 693.
2n+5 = 693 or
2n = 693–5 = 688, or
n = 344.
The number is thus 344
