Maths Olympiad Question for you peeps

OpenStudy (crashonce):

The digital sum of an integer is the sum of all its digits. A digit sum sequence is a sequence of numbers that start with any integer and has each number after the first equal to the digital sum of the number before it. e.g. 7598, 29, 11, 2. Any digital sum sequence ends in a single digit number called the final digital sum or FDS. Find and justify a rule that produces all 3 digit multiples of 7 with an FDS of 7 Find and justify a rule that produces all 3 digit multiples of 8 with an FDS of 8

i dont get the example

OpenStudy (dan815):

e.g. 7598, 29, 11, 2.

OpenStudy (crashonce):

7+5+9+8 = 29 2+9 = 11 1+1 = 2 so basically the sum of digits is the next number
