2026/001) How do I find the smallest positive integer n, such that each digit of n is either 0 or 7, and n is divisible by 15?

It is divisible by 15. So it is divisible by both 3 and 5

Because it is  divisible by 5 so unit digit is 0 or 5, As we have to chose from 0 and 7 so it is zero. Now we cannot have a zero in other position as it will increase the value of the number as it is additional digit and does not serve any other purpose.Sso other digits shall be 7 and we require 3 7s to be divisible by 3 or the number as 7770( 15 * 518) .
