prove that the product of three consecutive positive integer is divisible by six
Let the three consecutive positive integers are: n, (n+1)and (n+2)
Product = n*(n+1)* (n+2)
Let n=1
product = 1*(1+1)* (1+2)
= 1*2*3
= 6
So product is divisible by 6
Again let n=2
product = 2*(2+1)* (2+2)
= 2*3*4
= 24
So product is divisible by 6
Again let n=3
product = 3*(3+1)* (3+2)
= 3*4*5
= 60
So product is divisible by 6
So product of three consecutive positive integers are always divisible by 6.
