1) Mrs. Houser is baking cookies for an elderly neighbor. She decides to make half of this cookie recipe since she doesn't need the whole thing. Look at the recipe and then answer the questions below

What’s the question that we have to answer?

Step-by-step explanation:

(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
