The given problem is regarding solving of linear congruences. Given congruences are as follows

 X= 3mod(17); X= 10 mod(16) and X= 0 mod(15)

 

If k is any integer  Z (Set of integers) then X= 3+17k. Equating this to the congruence X=0mod(15),          3+17k= 0mod(15)

                                     17k= -3mod(15)

 

Add to this                       0=105mod(15)

 

                                Hence 17k= 102mod(15)

 

                                  Or,        k= 6mod(15)

                                                 = 6+15 l  , where l  Z (Set of integers)

 

This gives X= 3+ 17( 6 + 15 l)

                    = 105 +255l

 

Now setting this to X= 10mod(16),   105+255l = 10 mod(16)

                                                                           

                                                                    255l= -95mod(16)

 

Add to this                                                       0= -160mod(16)

 

                                                                     255l= -255 mod(16)

                                                           Or           l = -1 mod(16)

                                                                            = -1 + 16 m , where m  Z (Set of integers)

 

 

Now substitute for l in X=105 +255l,        X= 105 +255 (-1 + 16m)

                                                                      = -150 + 4080m,

 

                                                                       = 4080m-150

                               

 which gives the required solutions for X, where m= 1,2,3 ….etc
