  • Answer

Let P1(x),P2(x),…,Pk(x)P_{1}(x), P_{2}(x), \ldots, P_{k}(x) be monic polynomials of degree 13 with integer coefficients. Suppose there are pairwise distinct positive integers n1,n2,…,nkn_{1}, n_{2}, \ldots, n_{k} for which, for all positive integers ii and jj less than or equal to kk, the statement " nin_{i} divides Pj(m)P_{j}(m) for every integer mm " holds if and only if i=ji=j. Compute the largest possible value of kk.
