If n = 4, what is the value of (n+2)! / n!?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: 30

The governing concept is factorial notation: for a non-negative integer k, k! = k(k-1)(k-2) ... 1, and common factorial factors may be cancelled in a quotient. Substitute n = 4 into the expression: (n+2)! / n! = 6! / 4!. Expand only the needed factors rather than calculating both factorials completely: 6! = 6 × 5 × 4!, so 6! / 4! = 6 × 5 = 30. Hence option C is correct. Option B, 24, is merely 4!, while option D, 36, may result from an incorrect multiplication involving 6^2. Option A, 20, does not follow from the factorial cancellation. The reliable method is to cancel n! after writing (n+2)! as (n+2)(n+1)n!.
