A140715 Consider all the integers k where the n-th prime <= k <= the (n+1)th prime. a(n) is the largest integer that divides at least two of the integers k. 2

EXAMPLE
The 18th prime is 61 and the 19th prime is 67. So we will consider the integers 61, 62, 63, 64, 65, 66, 67. No integer >= 7 divides more than one integer in this range, because the range consists only of 7 terms, the two on the end being prime. Checking: 6 divides 66, but does not divide any other integer in this range. 5 divides 65, but does not divide any other integer in this range. 4 divides 64, but nothing else. 3, on the other hand, divides both 63 and 66. So a(18) = 3.
