COMMENTS
Let z be a specified minimum number of zeros in the order of the Monster group; here z is a natural number, 1 <= z <= 46, with z = (47 - n). Then the largest base in which the order of the Monster group has at least z zeros is:
Product_{k=1..20} prime(k)^floor(A051161(k)/z).
When z = 1 this is the order of the Monster group.
Every term in this sequence except the last is a number of least prime signature (A025487).
In the following table, when the order of the Monster group has exactly z zeros, it also has s significant digits, and d = s + z total digits.

EXAMPLE
a(27) = the largest base in which the order of the Monster group has at least (47 - 27) = 20 zeros. This is 2^(floor(46/20)) * 3^(floor(20/20)) = 2^2 * 3 = 12; the remaining terms in the product have exponent 0.
