Some stickers are in a packet.
If Adam puts them into groups of 8, there are 5 stickers short.
If Adam puts them into groups of 7, there are 6 stickers short.
Find the smallest possible number of stickers in a packet.
Multiples of 8: 8, 16, 24, 32, 40, 48
Multiples of 8 (-5): 3, 11, 19, 27, 35, 43
Multiples of 7: 7, 14, 21, 28, 35, 42, 49
Multiples of 7 (-6): 1, 8, 15, 22, 29, 36, 43
