The number is divisible by 3.
The sum of the digits in this number lies between 4 and 8.
It is an odd number.
When the digits in this number are multiplied together, the total lies between 4 and 8.

Very well done to both of you!!!
The answer is 15. Make a list of numbers 1- 36 that are divisible by 3. Cross out all that are even. This leaves 9, 15, 21, 27, and 33. 9, 21, and 27 have a “sum of digits” less than 4 or more than 8. But, 1 x 5 = 5 and 3x 3 = 9.
