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:

\( \frac{4!}{5!} \)
\( \frac{4 \times 3 \times 2 \times 1}{5 \times 4 \times 3 \times 2 \times 1} \)
\( \frac{1}{5} \)
\( \frac{1}{5} \)

To take the square root of a fraction, break the fraction into two separate roots then calculate the square root of the numerator and denominator separately:

\( \sqrt{\frac{16}{9}} \)
\( \frac{\sqrt{16}}{\sqrt{9}} \)
\( \frac{\sqrt{4^2}}{\sqrt{3^2}} \)
\( \frac{4}{3} \)
1\(\frac{1}{3}\)

There are 2 3-passenger taxis available so that's 2 x 3 = 6 total seats. There are 8 people needing transportation leaving 8 - 6 = 2 who will have to find other transportation.

To add these distances, they must share the same unit so first you need to first convert the swim distance from meters (m) to kilometers (km) before adding it to the bike and run distances which are already in km. To convert 400 meters to kilometers, divide the distance by 1000 to get 0.4km then add the remaining distances:

total distance = swim + bike + run
total distance = 0.4km + 30.3km + 5.7km
total distance = 36.4km

The equation for this sequence is:

a_n = a_n-1 + 4(n - 1)

where n is the term's order in the sequence, a_n is the value of the term, and a_n-1 is the value of the term before a_n. This makes the next number:

a₆ = a₅ + 4(6 - 1)
a₆ = 41 + 4(5)
a₆ = 61
