Discussion of Problem 1807. Cartridges for Maxim

Why my idea is wrong?
Posted by Shohruh 27 Jun 2021 16:58
When n>10 is a prime, i am writing n=k*3+l*2, where l=1,2 or 3 depending whether n mod 3  = 1 2 or 0. Then I get lcm=3^k*2^l, which is the maximal with respect to all possible divisions of n. However, my program gives WA6. Am I correct?

Thanks!

Clearly the lcm of k 3's and l 2's is at most 6 -- you are asked the lcm of them, not the product of them.
