For every positive even integer n, the function f(n) is defined to the product of all even integers from 2 to n, inclusive. If p is the smallest prime factor of f(100)+1, then p is:
(A) between 2 and 10
(B) between 10 and 20
(C) between 20 and 30
(D) between 30 and 40
(E) greater than 40

Answer: [spoiler](E)[/spoiler]

How do you solve this kind of problem?

Thanks!
