What Is Factorial?
A factorial is represented by an integer and an exclamation symbol. In arithmetic, factorial is a multiplication operation of natural numbers .
It multiplies the number by every basic number that is less than it .
Symbolically, it is symbolized as "!".
The function is used, among other things, to get the "n" way items can be arranged .
Factorial Formula
To find the factorial of any given number, replace the value for n in the given method :
n! = n × (n-1) × (n-2) × (n-3) × ….× 3 × 2 × 1
The expansion of the formula provides the numbers to be replicated to each other to obtain the factorial of the number.
We can also work out a factorial from the prior one. The factorial of any number is that number times the factorial of (that number minus 1).
So the rule is : n! = n × (n−1)!
Example :
28! Factorial =
28 x 27 x 26 x 25 x ... x 3 x 2 x 1 =
28 × 27! =
