n Rengaswamy,
Sorry,but coffin won't do. Lots of people organise and pay in advance for their own funeral,including picking a coffin.

I don't know about you lot, but mine is going to be made from cardboard and I'm going to paint it myself with pictures of LWB Landrovers and suchlike. Just hope I remember to get it in time.

A simple mathematics question.
What is the significance of the number "2519"? The answer is:
This is the smallest number which when divided by 10 leaves a remainder of 9
when divided by 9 gives a remainder of 8, when divided by 8 gives a remainder of 7,
When divided by 7 leaves 6 as remainder, when divided by 6 leaves 5 as remainder,
when divided by 5 leaves 4 as remainder, when divided by 4 leaves 3 as remainder,
when divided by 3 leaves 2 as remainder and when when divided by 2 leaves 1 as remainder.
Interesting! is n't it? Now the question is how do you arrive at the number?
