Use a calculator's factorial key to evaluate each expression. (300/20)!

검증된 단계별 안내
1
Identify the expression to evaluate: \(\left( \frac{300}{20} \right)!\).
Simplify the fraction inside the factorial: calculate \(\frac{300}{20}\).
Once simplified, rewrite the expression as \(n!\), where \(n\) is the result from the previous step.
Recall that the factorial function \(n!\) means the product of all positive integers from 1 up to \(n\), i.e., \(n! = n \times (n-1) \times (n-2) \times \cdots \times 1\).
Use a calculator's factorial key to compute the value of \(n!\) based on the simplified integer \(n\).

주요 개념

질문에 올바르게 답하기 위해 반드시 이해해야 하는 핵심 개념들은 다음과 같습니다.

Factorial Function

The factorial of a non-negative integer n, denoted n!, is the product of all positive integers from 1 to n. For example, 5! = 5 × 4 × 3 × 2 × 1 = 120. Factorials grow very quickly and are commonly used in permutations, combinations, and probability.

Order of Operations

Order of operations dictates the sequence in which parts of a mathematical expression are evaluated. In the expression (300/20)!, you first perform the division inside the parentheses, then apply the factorial to the result. This ensures accurate calculation.

Using a Calculator's Factorial Key

Many scientific calculators have a factorial function, often labeled as 'n!'. To evaluate expressions like (300/20)!, you first compute the division, then use the factorial key on the resulting integer. This simplifies calculations of large factorials.
