If a polygon has n sides, then sum of interior angles is (n-2)×180
 
Given polygon's smallest interior angle is 136° and they are consecutive integers.
Hence n angles are in A.P with common difference 1
 
sum of the angles = (n/2)[ 272 +(n-1) ] = (n-2)×180 ..................(1)
 
By solving eqn.(1), we get n = 9
