  At first find the least no. divisible by 16,24,32,48,60. 
  Least no. that is divisible by 16,24,32,48,60 = L.C.M of 16,24,32,48,60.    L.C.M of 16,24,32,48,60 = 480.  SO the least number divisible by 16,24,32,48,60 = 480.    Now, As we can see that remainder is always 3 less than corresponding divisors.
  i.e 16 - 3 = 13 or 24 - 3 = 21 or 32 - 3 = 29 etc.
 Therefore the number will be 480 - 3 = 477.
