%N The least common multiple of 1 + n^2 and 1 + n^3.
%C If d|(1 + n^2) and d|(1 + n^3), then d|((1 + n^2) - (n*(1 + n^2) - (1 + n^3))^2) = 2*n. If k|n and k|(1 + n^2), then k = 1 is only option since k|n^2 and k|(1 + n^2). So d must be 1 or 2, exactly. Obviously if n is odd, then the greatest d must be 2 since 1 + n^2 and 1 + n^3 are even. If n is even, then d must be 1 since 1 + n^2 and 1 + n^3 are odd.
