evaluate the factorial 34!/29! Answer by stanbon(75887) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! The senate in a certain state is comprised of 57 republicans, 41 democrats and 2 independents. How many committees can be formed if each committee must have 3 republicans and 2 democrats?
Ans: [57C3*41C2]/100C5 = 0.3187
========================================
evaluate the factorial 34!/29! = 34*33*32*31*30 = 33,390,720
