Answer: 1,2,3,4 Solution 1. First, note that clearly there are no composite positive integers less than 2 !, and no 3 consecutive composite positive integers less than 3 !. The only composite integers less than 4 ! are 4,6,8,9,10,12,14,15,16,18,20,21,22 and it is easy to see that there are no 4 consecutive composite positive integers among them. Therefore, all n≤4 works. Define M=lcm(1,2,…,n+1). To see that there are no other such positive integers, we first show that for all n≥5,n!>M. Let k=⌊log2(n+1)⌋. Note that v2(M)=k, while v2((n+1)!)=∑i=1k⌊2in+1⌋≥∑i=1k(2in+1−1)=(n+1−2kn+1)−k≥(n+1−2)−k=n−k−1. This means that at least (n−k−1)−k=n−2k−1 powers of 2 are lost when going from (n+1) ! to M. Since M∣(n+1) !, when n−2k−1≥k+1⟺n≥3k+2, we have M≤2k+1(n+1)!≤2(n+1)(n+1)!<n! as desired. Since n≥2k−1, we can rule out all k such that 2k≥3k+3, which happens when k≥4 or n≥15. Moreover, when k=3, we may also rule out all n≥3k+2=11. We thus need only check values of n between 5 and 10 : n=5:n!=120,M=60; n=6:n!=720,M=420 n=7:n!=5040,M=840 n∈{8,9,10}:n!≥40320,M≤27720. In all cases, n!>M, as desired. To finish, note that M−2,M−3,…,M−(n+1) are all composite (divisible by 2,3,…,n+1 respectively), which gives the desired n consecutive numbers. Therefore, all integers n≥5 do not satisfy the problem condition, and we are done. Solution 2. Here is a different way to show that constructions exist for n≥5. Note that when n+1 is not prime, the numbers n!−2,n!−3,…,n!−(n+1) are all composite (the first n−1 are clearly composite, the last one is composite because n+1∣n! and n!>2(n+1)). Otherwise, if n=p−1 for prime p≥7, then the numbers (n−1)!,(n−1)!−1,(n−1)!−2,…,(n−1)!−(n−1) are all composite (the first one and the last n−2 are clearly composite since (n−1)!>2(n−1), the second one is composite since p∣(p−2)!−1=(n−1)!−1 by Wilson's theorem).
