  3. Question 3. Prove that the product of any three consecutive integers is a multiple of 6.

    Show worked answerHide worked answer
    1. B1: at least one of the three is even, so the product is even
    2. B1: exactly one of the three is a multiple of 3, so the product is a multiple of 3
    3. C1: a multiple of 2 and of 3 is a multiple of 6
    Answer: It is a multiple of 2 and of 3, so a multiple of 6
    Proof with Consecutive Numbers
