Problem Statement

Jonah recently harvested a large number of lychees and wants to split them into groups. Unfortunately, for all nn where 3n83\leq n\leq8, when the lychees are distributed evenly into nn groups, n1n-1 lychees remain. What is the smallest possible number of lychees that Jonah could have?
