n=5⇒f(5)=2^(32) +1=641×6700417  n=6⇒f(6)=(1071.2^8 +1)(2^8 .262 814 145 745+1)  =274 177×67 280 421 310 721

$$\mathrm{n}=\mathrm{5}\Rightarrow\mathrm{f}\left(\mathrm{5}\right)=\mathrm{2}^{\mathrm{32}} +\mathrm{1}=\mathrm{641}×\mathrm{6700417} \\ $$$$\mathrm{n}=\mathrm{6}\Rightarrow\mathrm{f}\left(\mathrm{6}\right)=\left(\mathrm{1071}.\mathrm{2}^{\mathrm{8}} +\mathrm{1}\right)\left(\mathrm{2}^{\mathrm{8}} .\mathrm{262}\:\mathrm{814}\:\mathrm{145}\:\mathrm{745}+\mathrm{1}\right) \\ $$$$=\mathrm{274}\:\mathrm{177}×\mathrm{67}\:\mathrm{280}\:\mathrm{421}\:\mathrm{310}\:\mathrm{721} \\ $$
