The smallest such number is 2519.
The easiest way is to find the Least Common Multiple (LCM)
of 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 and 9. And subtract 1 from it.
The LCM of 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 and 9 is given by 2520.
Hence, the required number is 2519

The answer is LCM of 2,3,....9 and subtract 1 from the
result. Please not that every no divisible by 6 is
divisible by 2 & 3, also every number divisible by 8 is
divisible by 4, and any number divisible by 8 & 9 will be
divisible by 6. These are the fundas. hence the answer is
9*8*7*5 - 1 = 2519.
ofcourse this may not as easy to figure out as i siad
unless one is good at the math fundas.
