Hi,
For the coprimes of 30:
1,7,11,13,17,19,23,29 I organized them into two columns like this, where the sum of each row is 30:
1 29
7 23
11 19
13 17
Then took the product of each row:
29
161
209
221
Then I took the difference of these:
161-29=132
209-161=48
221-209=12
And noticed that 132,48 and 12 all have greatest common divisor 12.
I also did the same for the coprimes of 210:
1,11,13,17,19,23,29,31,37,41,43,47,53,59,61,67,71,73,79,83,89,97,101,103,107,109,113,
121,127,131,137,139,143,149,151,157,163,167,169,173,179,181,187,191,193,197,199,209,
I organized them into two columns like this, where the sum of each row is 210:
1 209
11 199
13 197
17 193
19 191
23 187
29 181
31 179
37 173
41 169
43 167
47 163
53 157
59 151
61 149
67 143
71 139
73 137
79 131
83 127
89 121
97 113
101 109
103 107
Then took the product of each row:
209
2189
2561
3281
3629
4301
5249
5549
6401
6929
7181
7661
8321
8909
9089
9581
9869
10001
10349
10541
10769
10961
11009
11021
Then I took the difference of these:
ie: 2189-209=1980
1980
372
720
348
672
948
300
852
528
252
480
660
588
180
492
288
132
348
192
228
192
48
12
And noticed that all these also have greatest common divisor of 12, just like for primorial 30.
So I am guessing that all primorials have the same pattern but not sure.
The question I have is where does this greatest common divisor of 12 come from?
Here is a picture of the spreadsheet I used:
