Answer:
product of 3 consecutive positive integer is divisible 6
Step-by-step explanation:
Let say Three consecutive integers are
3n , 3n + 1 , 3n + 2
Products = 3n(3n + 1)(3n + 2)
= 3n ( 9n² + 9n + 2)
= 3n ( 9n(n+1) + 2)
n can be 2k or 2k+1
if n = 2k
= 3 * 2k (9*2k(2k +1) + 2)
= 6 k ( 18k(k+1) + 2)
Divisible by 6
if n = 2k + 1
= 3 (2k + 1) ( 9 (2k + 1)(2k + 2) + 2)
= 3 (2k + 1) 2 ( 9 (2k + 1)(k+1) + 1)
= 6 (2k + 1) ( 9 (2k + 1)(k+1) + 1)
Divisible by 6
Hence product of three consecutive positive integer is divisible by
