Example Question #191 : Mathematical Relationships And Basic Graphs

Multiply:  

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

Simplify all the factorials first.

Substitute each term.

Simplify by order of operations.

The answer is:  

Example Question #41 : Factorials

Divide the factorials:  

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

Expand the factorials first.  Do not distribute the integers inside the parentheses or this will change the value of the factorial.

Cross out the common terms in the numerator and denominator.

The answer is:  

Example Question #48 : Factorials

Multiply the factorials:  

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

Zero factorial is a special case.  It is equal to one.  

Expand the other factorials.

Simplify this expression.

The answer is:  

Example Question #49 : Factorials

Divide the factorials:  

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

The value of zero factorial is equal to one.  This is the special case.

Simplify the expression.

Write out the terms in the denominator.

The answer is:  

Example Question #50 : Factorials

Divide the factorials:  

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

Simplify the factorials first.  Expand the terms.

Cancel the common terms.

Change the sign to multiplication and take the reciprocal of the second fraction.

The answer is:  

Example Question #51 : Factorials

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

Simplify the factorials in each fraction by canceling common factors in the numerator and denominator. It would be helpful to write this in expanded form but the factorials are too large for this to be feasible.

Example Question #52 : Factorials

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

First, simplify the factorials in each fraction by canceling common factors in the numerator and denominator. It can help to write it in expanded form.

You can now turn this into a multiplication problem and flip the second fraction

Example Question #53 : Factorials

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

First, simplify the factorials in each fraction by canceling common factors in the numerator and denominator. It can help to write it in expanded form.

It is easiest to combine these numbers into one fraction. The 5! will go into the numerator

Example Question #51 : Multiplying And Dividing Factorials

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

Simplify the factorials in each fraction by canceling common factors in the numerator and denominator. It can help to write it in expanded form.

Example Question #55 : Factorials

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

Simplify the factorials the fraction by canceling common factors in the numerator and denominator. Normally, it would help to write out the factorials in expanded form, but since these are larger factorials that is not feasible. The best approach to cancelling these is thinking that 20! will be completely gone by taking it out of 25! and 5! will be completely gone by taking it out of 10!

Then reduce this to lowest terms.
