factor problem

by asdf1234 » Sun Dec 21, 2008 10:56 am
This is from the GMATPrep software's practice test:

For every positive integer n, the function h(n) is defined to be the product of all even integers from 2 to n, inclusive. If p is the smallest prime factor of h(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

The answer is E. Any ideas on how to get to E?
