What is the value of (\frac{15!}{13!\times 3})?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: (70)

The direct answer is option C, 70. Expand only the part of 15! not included in 13!: \(15!=15 imes14 imes13!\). Hence \(\frac{15!}{13! imes3}=\frac{15 imes14 imes13!}{13! imes3}=\frac{15 imes14}{3}=5 imes14=70\). Option A, 60, is wrong because the correct numerator factors are 15 and 14, not a product giving 60. Option B, 65, does not result from the required multiplication and division. Option C, 70, is correct. Option D, 75, is also not obtained after cancelling \(13!\) and dividing by 3. The denominator means \(13!\) multiplied by 3, so cancel \(13!\) first and then divide the remaining product by 3. Avoid expanding all factorials; it creates large numbers and more opportunities for mistakes. Memory cue: \(\frac{n!}{(n-2)!}=n(n-1)\).
