Some stickers are in a packet.
If Adam puts them into groups of 8, there are 3 stickers short.
If Adam puts them into groups of 5, there are 4 stickers short.
Find the smallest possible number of stickers in a packet.
Multiples of 8: 8, 16, 24, 32, 40, 48, 56, 64
Multiples of 8 (-3): 5, 13, 21, 29, 37, 45, 53, 61
Multiples of 5: 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50, 55, 60, 65
Multiples of 5 (-4): 1, 6, 11, 16, 21, 26, 31, 36, 41, 46, 51, 56, 61
