Answer:

PLEASE MAKE ME BRAINLIST

Step-by-step explanation:

Alternatively:

n is a multiple of 7, and 1 short of a multiple of 3 or 4 or 5 or 6

Division by 6 takes care of division by 3, so n+1 = 4 x 5 x 6 x K

(where K will ensure it’s a multiple of 7)

So n = 119*K, and 119 is divisible by 7, so K = 1 and n = 119
