Ans. E---greater than 40
h(100)+1 = 2*4*6*8*....100 + 1
= 2^50(1*2*...50) + 1 = 2^50(50!) + 1
50! = 50*49*48*47*46...
Ans: 47

I agree that answer should be E but how did you arrived at 47. IMO this will even be greater than 50.
Lets assume that h(100) = x
x is a multiple of 47. How x +1 can be a multiple of 47?
Also x includes all the numbers from 1 to 50. So no number could between 1 and 50 divide x +1.
