ANSWER
Here (3-1) =2
(4-2) =2 , (5-3)= 2, (6-4) =2 and (7-5) =2
LCM of 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 is 420.
Consider three digit number 999
When 999 is divided by 420, the remainder is 159 with quotient 2.
Subtracting 159 from 999 gives 840.
again subtract 2 from 840 = 838. {here 2 is subtracted from 840 as the difference between the given divisors and the remainders is 2 in each case)
Now,when 838 is divided by 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 we get the remainders as 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 respectively.
Hence only one such number is possible.
