The least number that leaves a remainder of 3 when divided by 5 is 8.

Explanation:
To solve this problem, it would be easiest to get the first multiple of 5 (which is 5) and add 3. We do this because addition is the opposite of subtraction, so we would add 3 to the least multiple to get a remainder of 3.
