• when divided by 357 the number gives 5 as reminder
  so let the number be (357*x+5)
  dividing the number by 17 we get (357*x+5)/17
  now 357 can be written as 21*17.
  therefore, (357*x+5)= 357*x/17 + 5/17 = (21*17*x)/17 +5/17
  now the reminder of 357*x/17=0 so the reminder of the number will be 5
