Example Question #28 : Factorials

Solve:  

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

Rewrite all the factorial terms in expanded form.  To expand a factorial, multiply all the integers in decreasing order until it reaches to one.

Do not distribute the integer through the number before the factorial, and do not cancel the sevens in the numerator and denominator.

Rewrite the numerator in terms so that we can simplify the fraction.

Notice all the constants that we can cancel.  This fraction will reduce to"

The answer is:
