Solve for \( \frac{6!}{4!} \)

A factorial is the product of an integer and all the positive integers below it. To solve a fraction featuring factorials, expand the factorials and cancel out like numbers:
\( \frac{6!}{4!} \)
\( \frac{6 \times 5 \times 4 \times 3 \times 2 \times 1}{4 \times 3 \times 2 \times 1} \)
\( \frac{6 \times 5}{1} \)
\( 6 \times 5 \)

What is \( \frac{9}{5} \) + \( \frac{3}{9} \)?
| 1 \( \frac{6}{15} \) | |
| 1 \( \frac{9}{16} \) | |
| 2\(\frac{2}{15}\) | |
| \( \frac{9}{14} \) |
To add these fractions, first find the lowest common multiple of their denominators. The first few multiples of 5 are [5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50] and the first few multiples of 9 are [9, 18, 27, 36, 45, 54, 63, 72, 81, 90]. The first few multiples they share are [45, 90] making 45 the smallest multiple 5 and 9 share.
Next, convert the fractions so each denominator equals the lowest common multiple:
\( \frac{9 x 9}{5 x 9} \) + \( \frac{3 x 5}{9 x 5} \)
\( \frac{81}{45} \) + \( \frac{15}{45} \)
Now, because the fractions share a common denominator, you can add them:
\( \frac{81 + 15}{45} \) = \( \frac{96}{45} \) = 2\(\frac{2}{15}\)
\({b + c \over a} = {b \over a} + {c \over a}\) defines which of the following?

distributive property for division |

distributive property for multiplication |
The distributive property for division helps in solving expressions like \({b + c \over a}\). It specifies that the result of dividing a fraction with multiple terms in the numerator and one term in the denominator can be obtained by dividing each term individually and then totaling the results: \({b + c \over a} = {b \over a} + {c \over a}\). For example, \({a^3 + 6a^2 \over a^2} = {a^3 \over a^2} + {6a^2 \over a^2} = a + 6\).
4! = ?
5 x 4 x 3 x 2 x 1 |
|
4 x 3 x 2 x 1 |
|
3 x 2 x 1 |
|
4 x 3 |
A factorial has the form n! and is the product of the integer (n) and all the positive integers below it. For example, 5! = 5 x 4 x 3 x 2 x 1 = 120.
