Tough Sequence Question

I will use _ to represent subscript.

a_n = (n+2)/n

a_n * a_(n+2) = (n+2)/n * (n+4)/(n+2) = (n+4)/n

a_n * a_(n+2) * a_(n+4) = (n+4)/n * (n+6)/(n+4) = (n+6)/n

.
.
.

a_n * a_(n+2) * a_(n+4) * ... * a_(n+8) = (n+10)/n

Then let n = 1

a_1 * a_3 * ...* a_7 * a_9 = (1 + 10)/1 = 11

Let n = 2

a_2 * a_4 * ... * a_8 * a_10 = (2 + 10)/2 = 6

Therefore

a_1 * a_2 * ... * a_9 * a_10 = 6 * 11 = 66

The answer is B.

Think of it in terms of factorials (kind of).

Numerator starts at (1+2) or 3 and continues to (10+2) or 12.

Denominator starts at 1 and continues to 10.

Everything cancels out save for 11 and 12 in the numerator and 1 and 2 in the denominator. 132 / 2 = 66.

Answer is B.

the correct answer is "B"

thanks for the help !
