%N Product of first k triangular numbers divided by the sum of first k triangular numbers is an integer.

%C Numbers k such that (1*3*6*10* ... *(k*(k+1)/2)) / (1+3+6+10+ ... +(k*(k+1)/2)) is an integer. What if, instead of triangular numbers, we use squares, 1*4*...*(k*k) / (1+4+...+k*k); odd numbers, 1*3*...*(2*k-1) / (1+3+...+(2*k-1)); or Fibonacci numbers, F(1)* ... *F(k) / (F(1)+ ... + F(k))?

%C It appears that the corresponding sequence for the Fibonacci numbers is given in A133653. - _John W. Layman_, Jul 10 2010

%C k > 6 is in this sequence if and only if k+2 is composite. - _Robert Israel_, Nov 04 2021

%F {k: A006472(k+1)/A000292(k) in Z}. - _R. J. Mathar_, Jun 28 2010

%e For k=4 we have 1*3*6*10 /(1+3+6+10) = 9 so k=4 belongs to the sequence.

%p A006472 := proc(n) n!*(n-1)!/2^(n-1) ; end proc:

%p A000292 := proc(n) binomial(n+2,3) ; end proc:

%p for n from 1 to 200 do a := A006472(n+1)/A000292(n) ; if type(a,'integer') then printf("%d,",n) ; end if; end do: # _R. J. Mathar_, Jun 28 2010
