What Is Factorial?

A factorial is showed by an integer and an exclamation tag. In arithmetic, factorial is a multiplication function of natural numbers .

It multiplies the number by every organic number that is less than it .

Symbolically, it is listed as "!".

The function is used, among other things, to find the "n" way things can be established .

Factorial Formula

To find the factorial of any given number, substitute the value for n in the given rule :

n! = n × (n-1) × (n-2) × (n-3) × ….× 3 × 2 × 1

The expansion of the formula shows the numbers to be replicated collectively to get the factorial of the number.

We can also calculate a factorial from the previous one. The factorial of any number is that number multiplied the factorial of (that number minus 1).

So the rule is : n! = n × (n−1)!

Example :
55! Factorial = 55 x 54 x 53 x 52 x ... x 3 x 2 x 1 = 55 × 54! = 12696403353658275925965100847566516959580321051449436762275840000000000000
