Question 5
Let $a_{1}, a_{2}, \ldots, a_{n}$ be a sequence of distinct positive integers such that $a_{1}+a_{2}+\cdots+a_{n}=2021$ and $a_{1} a_{2} \cdots a_{n}$ is maximized. If $M=a_{1} a_{2} \cdots a_{n}$, compute the largest positive integer $k$ such that $2^{k} \mid M$. Proposed by: Sheldon Kieren Tan
