The distance between the two islands shown on the map is 210 miles. a ruler measures this distance on the map as 3.5 inches. how many miles would be represented by 1 3/4 inches on the map?

(n^3 - n)

= n(n-1)(n+1)

since it is divisible by 3 and 2 ,because it is a multiple 3 consecutive number

if, n-1 is odd then n+1 is also odd, then it is a multiple of 9

but if, n-1 is even then n+1 is also even, then it is a multiple of 4

so, largest multiple = max(9*2, 4*3) = max(18, 12) = 18

answer: no, but if it does it's a obvious pattern.
