Three 3-digit Positive Integers (Posted on 2023-07-02) Difficulty: 3 of 5
Charmaine has written down three 3-digit positive integers which between them contains exactly 9 distinct digits.

Among these three positive integers:

  • There is at least one that is divisible by 2.
  • There is at least one that is divisible by 3.
  • There is at least one that is divisible by 4.
  • There is at least one that is divisible by 5.
  • There is at least one that is divisible by 6.
  • There is at least one that is divisible by 7.
  • There is at least one that is divisible by 8.
  • There is at least one that is divisible by 9.
In addition, it is known that all the three positive integers are divisible by 11.

What are the three 3-digit integers posited by Charmaine?

Note: Adapted from Enigma # 1776 which appeared in 'New Scientist' in 2013.

Oof, I am a bit embarrassed about such a large omission.  Everything in my solution up through figuring 792 is a multiple of 72 was purely a transcript of mental math.  

I am a bit surprised that accidently pruning the majority of the search space did not leave me with no answer.
