Find a string of 100 consecutive positive integers each divisible by a perfect square. Can you find such a set of smaller integers?

{4, 8, 12, ... }

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I think it requires that the integers be consecutive. I know this is solvable with the Chinese Number theorem, but I'm not sure how.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

can 1 count as a perfect square?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The solution set has to be greater than 1.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so can it be 2 to 101? dey are all divisible by 1^2=1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

if not that^ there will be no solution cos out of 100 consecutive numbers... atleast one must be prime

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I think this the set includes very large numbers.
