Hi Seqfans,

It's interesting how many of the numbers are divisible by prior numbers. 
For example:

3682784876146817236992 / 28771756844897009664 = 891981549010944
28771756844897009664 / 611784327168 = 47029248
611784327168 / 4161798144 = 147
4161798144 / 4128768 = 1008
4128768 / 18432 =224
18432 / 384 = 48
384 / 128 = 3

and:

13395375 / 735 = 18225
13395375 / 175 = 76545

among others.

Any idea as to why this is?  Might this help giver to clues to (possibly) 
finding larger numbers with this property, if any exist?

Cheers,
Bob Selcoe
