m!+ K
I Have been given this question and cannot get an answer so here goes if anyone can help within the next hour would be great.
Explore the divisors of m! + k for various m and k. Hence explain how to find a run of n consecutive integers which are composite.
Example:
m=5
5! = 120 Composite
5! + 1 = 121 Composite
5! + 2 = 122 Composite
5! + 3 = 123 Composite
5! + 4 = 124 Composite
5! + 5 = 125 Composite
5! + 6 = 126 Composite
5! + 7 = 127 Not Composite
The ? are suppose to be arrows.
