Multiplication product of 5 consecutive integers if added by 30 which is the lowest of integers?

Multiplication product of 5 consecutive integers if added by 30 which is the lowest of integers?

Explanation

Let's define the five consecutive integers as:

Step 1: Set up the equation

Their product is given as:

If we add 30 to this product, the lowest integer should be determined.

Step 2: Checking the answer choices

Let's check n=1n = 1:

Adding 30:


120 + 30 = 150

150 is not a perfect product of five consecutive integers for a lower value of nn.

Let's check n=3n = 3:


3 times 4 times 5 times 6 times 7 = 2520

Adding 30:


2520 + 30 = 2550

Again, this does not lead to another valid set of consecutive integers.

Let's check n=6n = 6:


6 times 7 times 8 times 9 times 10 = 3024

Adding 30:


3024 + 30 = 3054

None of these seem to form a perfect new product. However, since the question asks for the lowest integer in a valid case, and if a valid product exists, we see that n=6n = 6 fits the pattern closest.

Final Answer:


mathbf{(c) 6}
