FORMULA
From Gary Detlefs Apr 14 2011 and Apr 18 2011: (Start)
a(n) = (n+4)!*gcd(n-1,3)/(360*(n-1)!*gcd(n,4))
a(n) = (n+4)!*(5-4*cos((2*n+1)*Pi/3))/(1080*(n-1)!*(2+(-1)^n+cos(n*Pi/2)))
a(n) = (n+4)!*gcd(n-1,6)/(180*(n-1)!*2^((2*cos(n*Pi/2)+9+(-1)^n)/4)), n>1. (End)
120 <= n*(n+1)*(n+2)*(n+3)*(n+4)/a(n) <= 1440. - Charles R Greathouse IV, Sep 19 2012
Sum_{n>=1} 1/a(n) = 80 - 40*log(sqrt(3)+2)/sqrt(3) - 490*log(2)/3 + 60*log(3). - Amiram Eldar, Sep 29 2022
EXAMPLE
a(6) = 42 as lcm(6,7,8,9,10)/60 = 2520/60 = 42.
