There is no "x" in the problem....

A simplified form of the given expression is A = (b!)/(b+1).

Finding a more "simplified" expression looks difficult if not impossible; and the resulting expression will not be "simple".

If you want more than this, re-post your question (correctly) and making it clear what "simplified" means to you.
