The product of three consecutive integers is ...? Odd? Divisible by $4$? by $5$? by $6$? by $12$? If i have the product of three consecutive integers:
$n(n+1)(n+2)$, so the result is:
$A)$ Odd
$B)$ Divisible by $4$
$C)$ Divisible by $5$
$D)$ Divisible by $6$
$E)$ Divisible by $12$
My thought was:
$i)$ If we have three consecutive numbers, $a, (a + 1), (a + 2)$, one of these three numbers must be divisible by $3$.
$ii)$ If we have two consecutive numbers, $a, (a + 1)$, one of these two numbers must be divisible by $2$, also one of these numbers will be even and the other will be odd.
$iii)$ Any number is divisible by $6$, when is divisible by $3$ and $2$ at the same time.
So, the correct answer must be $D)$
Well, I would like to know if:

*My answer is correct

*What is the formal proof of what I said in $ i) $


Looks good. The multiplication table for three, is $3,6,9,12,15$ etc any consecutive three integers has to include one of these because there are only two integers between them.
