Find the number of zeroes at the end of 48!.
Find the number of zeroes at the end of 48!.
Solution:
Maximum power of 5 in 48!
= 9 + 1
= 10
This way:
[ 48 / 5 ] + [48/5x5] + [48 / 5x5x5] + …….. [till the quotient is greater than zero]
= 9 + 1 + 0
= 10
Answer: 10

2^6, 3^3 Exponents: 6 & 3
Add 1 to each exponent (6+1) (3+1)
Multiple “exponents+1” together = (6+1) x (3+1) =7 x 4 = 28
Multiple “exponents+1” together = (6+1) x (3+1) =7 x 4 = 28
Total number of divisors
of 1728 = 28
