n = 25

25^4 + 6*25^3 + 11*25^2 + 6*25 =491,400 mod 700 =0

factor

n^4 + 6n^3 + 11n^2 + 6n

n(n^3 + 6n^2 + 11n + 6)

n(n^2(n+6)+11(n+6))

n(n2+11)(n+6)

And i leave up to u

What is the smallest positive integer $$n$$ such that $$n^4 + 6n^3 + 11n^2 + 6n$$ is divisible by $$700$$?

$$\begin{array}{|rcll|} \hline n^4 + 6n^3 + 11n^2 + 6n = n*(n+1)*(n+2)*(n+3) \\ \hline \end{array}$$
