Answer: No number divided by 1 leaves a remainder of 1

since every number divides evenly by 1

divided by 2 leaving a remainder of 1:

1 , 3, 5, 7, 9, .... all odd numbers

divided by 3 leaving a remainder of 1:

1, 4, 7, 10, 13, 16, .....61 ....

divided by 4 leaves a remainder of 1:

1 , 5, 9, 13, 17, 21, ....61 ....

divided by 5 leaves a remainder of 1:

1, 6, 11, 16, 21, 26, 31, .... 61 ....

divided by 6 leaves a remainder of 1:

1, 7, 13, 19, ..... . 61 ....

looks like 61 , except the division by 1 part.

OR  

LCM of 2,3,4,5 is 60

to have remainder of 1 for all

60 + 1 = 61
