Range of a Prime number?

by muna_m » Fri Jun 19, 2009 9:01 am
h(n) is the product of the even numbers from 2 to n, inclusive, and p is the least prime
factor of h(100)+1. What is the range of p?


Can somebody please help me on this one.

Thanks!

This problem owned me when I took GMAT Prep 1 to see where I was at. This is one of the hardest problems on the GMAT Prep. You can find solutions to most of the GMAT prep problems with the search. Ian wrote a great solution to this problem.
