Let n be a natural number, then n(n*n-1) is always divisible by
Read Solution (Total 8)
-
- n(n*n-1)
= n*(n^2-1)
= n*(n-1)*(n+1)
= (n-1)*(n)*(n+1)
product of 3 conseutive natural no. is always divisible by 6.

- by hit and trial method,
firstly put value of n=2 then
2(4-1)=6
now put value of n=3 then
3(9-1)=24
n=4 then
4(16-1)=60
therefore in each case the result is divisible by 6
answer is 6. - 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(6) No(2)

any of the three consecutive natural number. - 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- n*(n-1)*(n+1) which is divisible by 6
- 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- SINCE A NO. WHOSE MULTIPLE ARE n*(n-1)*(n+1)
if n is odd or even then it must contain two multiples of two
so its ans will be 4 - 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
