Some stickers are in a packet.
If Adam puts them into groups of 9, there are 2 stickers short.
If Adam puts them into groups of 8, there are 3 stickers short.
Find the smallest possible number of stickers in a packet.
Multiples of 9: 9, 18, 27, 36, 45, 54, 63
Multiples of 9 (-2): 7, 16, 25, 34, 43, 52, 61
Multiples of 8: 8, 16, 24, 32, 40, 48, 56, 64
Multiples of 8 (-3): 5, 13, 21, 29, 37, 45, 53, 61
