%N Smaller of the two factors of the n-th semiprime number of the form m!-1.
%C To continue the sequence the factorizations of 151!-1 and 154!-1 are required, which are composite numbers with 265 and 272 digits, respectively. The next term would then be 37272934189201737869016720929 (factor of 157!-1).
%C 151!-1 has been factored into P58*P208. - _Hugo Pfoertner_, Jul 18 2019
