A186193 Numbers n such that n!! is divisible by (n+1). 2

%I #27 Sep 08 2022 08:45:55

%S 14,20,24,26,32,34,38,44,48,50,54,56,62,64,68,74,76,80,84,86,90,92,94,

%N Numbers n such that n!! is divisible by (n+1).

%C Positions of zeros in A119688 (n!! mod (n+1)).

%C All terms are even (for n odd, n!! is odd and not divisible by even (n+1))

%C Apparently all integers of form 8+6k, k >= 1, are in the sequence.

%C Exactly all even numbers n >= 14 with composite n+1 are in this sequence. - _Alois P. Heinz_, Feb 15 2011

%e 14!! = 14*12*10*8*6*4*2 = 645120 = 43008*15, so 14 is in the sequence.

%e 16!! = 16*14*12*10*8*6*4*2 = 10321920 is not divisible by 17, so 16 is not in the sequence.

%e 20!! = 20*18*16*14*12*10*8*6*4*2 = 3715891200 = 176947200*21, so 20 is in the sequence.
