Example Question #3 : Factorials
To simplify this, just write out each factorial:
Example Question #1 : Multiplying And Dividing Factorials
Find the value of:
The factorial sign (!) just tells us to multiply that number by every integer that leads up to it. So, can also be written as:
To make this easier for ourselves, we can cancel out the numbers that appear on both the top and bottom:
Example Question #151 : Mathematical Relationships And Basic Graphs
Which of the following is equivalent to ?
None of the other answers are correct.
This is a factorial question. The formula for factorials is .
Example Question #3 : Factorials
Divide by
A factorial is a number which is the product of itself and all integers before it. For example
In our case we are asked to divide by . To do this we will set up the following:
We know that can be rewritten as the product of itself and all integers before it or:
Substituting this equivalency in and simplifying the term, we get:
Example Question #1 : Factorials
If is a postive integer, which of the following answer choices is a possible value for the expression.
This expression of factorials reduces to (n+1)(n+2). Therefore, the solution must be a number that multiplies to 2 consecutive integers. Only 30 is a product of 2 consecutive integers.
So n would have to be 4 in this problem.
Example Question #1 : Multiplying And Dividing Factorials
Simplify:
Remember what a factorial is, and first write out what the original equation means. A factorial is a number that you multiply by all whole numbers that come before it until you reach one.
You can simplify because all terms in the expression 17! are found in 20!.
Thus:
Example Question #10 : Multiplying And Dividing Factorials
Simplify:
Rewrite the factorials in multiplicative order.
In this scenario, the numbers of the factorial in the numerator and denominator CANNOT cancel. Simplify by multiplying out the factorials.
Example Question #11 : Factorials
Simplify the following expression:
n! indicates a factorial, which means the products of numbers from 1 to n.
Example Question #12 : Factorials
Divide:
Write out the terms for the factorial.
Cancel out the common numbers in the numerator and denominator.
The answer is .
Example Question #13 : Factorials
Multiply:
To evaluate the product of these factorials, we will need to expand the factorials.
Multiply all the values.
The answer is:
