CLD-R Exam 1, Question 19

Wouldn't that be 3!*2?

6*4*2 = 3*2 * 2*2 * 1*2 = (3*2*1)*2 = 3!*2

Oops, nope.

6*4*2 = 48

(3!) * 2 = 12

Looks like you were applying the Distributive law to multiplication by accident....

You're right, clearly i'm in the wrong, but the idea was that "decrease by 2" should be possible with factorial.

6*4*2 = 3*2 * 2*2 * 1*2 = (3*2*1)*2*2*2 = 3!*2^3 = 48 😉

Or Generalized:

x!(step n) = (x/n)!*n^x 

Let's try with 12!step 3

12*9*6*3 = 1944

(12/3)!*3^4 = 4!*3^4 = 24*81 = 1944  Yay! \o/
