5.Sebuah kapal selam berada 420.5 m di bawah aras laut. Kapal selam itu menyelam sedalam 185.6 m dan kemudian menaik 200.9 m. Tentukan kedudukan baharu kapal selam itu berpandukan aras laut.

(n^3 - n)

= n(n-1)(n+1)

since it is divisible by 3 and 2 ,because it is a multiple 3 consecutive number

if, n-1 is odd then n+1 is also odd, then it is a multiple of 9

but if, n-1 is even then n+1 is also even, then it is a multiple of 4

so, largest multiple = max(9*2, 4*3) = max(18, 12) = 18
