Factors and Multiples

The formula n2 + n + 17 will give primes for n = 1, 2, 3, ..., 16 but not for n = 17. Which of the primes less than 175 are given by this formula? Write the primes in increasing order.

Just plug in the numbers. Note the formula as written at 17 amounts to the sum of multiples of 17.
