n× (n+42)
=if n = 1 is a whole number
then
![1 \times (1 + 42) 1 \times (1 + 42)](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=1+%5Ctimes+%281+%2B+42%29)
![= 1 + 42 = 1 + 42](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=+%3D+1+%2B+42)
![= 43 = 43](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=+%3D+43)
therefore 43 is a prime number
n× (n+42)
=if n = 1 is a whole number
