Break The Integer Problem Statement

Given an integer N, the task is to divide this integer into 'K' positive parts (where K ≥ 2) such that their sum equals N. The objective is to maximize the product of these 'K' parts.

Input:

The first line contains an integer 'T', representing the number of test cases.
Each of the next 'T' lines contains a single integer 'N'.

Output:

For each test case, return the maximum product achievable by dividing 'N' into 'K' parts.

Example:

Input:
T = 2
4
10
Output:
4
36
Explanation:

For N = 4, breaking it into parts [2, 2] gives product 4.
For N = 10, breaking it into parts [3, 3, 4] gives product 36.

Constraints:

  • 1 ≤ T ≤ 11
  • 2 ≤ N ≤ 55
  • Time Limit: 1 sec
