We have,
3x + 2 = n
5y + 1 = n (x & y being their respective quotient)
Therefore, 3x + 2 = 5y + 1
3x = 5y - 1
x = (5y - 1)/3
Now we know that, 5y - 1 is divisible by 3, so lets substitute y = 0, 1, or 2
Trying these values we find y = 2
3x = 5(2) - 1
3x = 9
x = 3
n = 3x + 2 = 9 + 2 = 11
n = 5y + 1 = 10 + 1 = 11
Thus 11 is the least possible value of n
