If (\frac{n!+(n-1)!}{(n-1)!}=9), what is the value of (n)?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: (8)

The denominator is (n-1)!. Rewrite the numerator using n!=n(n-1)!: n!+(n-1)!=n(n-1)!+(n-1)!=(n+1)(n-1)!. Dividing by (n-1)! gives n+1, assuming the factorial is defined and nonzero. The equation therefore becomes n+1=9, so n=8.

Hence option C is correct. The important step is factoring the common factorial before cancelling it. A direct calculation of large factorials is unnecessary and can cause errors. The values 6, 7, and 9 would make the simplified expression equal to 7, 8, and 10 respectively, not 9. Thus the algebra supports only 8 among the listed choices.
