+#REDIRECT [[2003 AMC 12B Problems/Problem 12]]
-What is the largest integer that is a divisor of
-<cmath> (n+1)(n+3)(n+5)(n+7)(n+9) </cmath>
-for all positive even integers <math>n</math>?
-<math>\textbf{(A) } 3 \qquad\textbf{(B) } 5 \qquad\textbf{(C) } 11 \qquad\textbf{(D) } 15 \qquad\textbf{(E) } 165</math>
-==Solution==
-Since the numbers being multiplied are all odd, <math>2</math> is not a factor of the product, but <math>3</math> and <math>5</math> are since they are 5 consecutive odd numbers. This gives <math>\boxed{\textbf{(D) } 15}</math> as the answer.
