Can you help me solve this math problem?

How many factors does 1000! have?

So, I think that…

1000 factorial will have at least 1000 factors Since it is, by definition, 1000 distinct numbers multiplied together).

However, it will have plenty more than that.

I'm not going to tell you the answer, in case this is your homework.

Now, you can multiply any number of those numbers together to make a factor

Just be sure not to count things twice

6! is 720.
9 is a factor of 720, but you can't obtain that by multiplying any combination of the numbers 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6.

Maybe they were meaning combinations of the numbers, eg 4*5*9 = 720?

4*5*9 =180, not 720

Circles don't have exterior angles…

I would argue the answer should be 38 because you never have more than 2 significant figures in the input. I might be wrong though.

Unless someone else has something to say , then I suggest you try The Emporium (Link in my sig). They have great speed, and would be happy to help you out. Just tell them that pacificapilot suggested it for you.

Ok. I still think 38 is a decimal though.

38 isn't a decimal as it has no decimal point.

Google's answer

See definition 1, and using that definition, it is, because it is a base 10 number

38/10 then?
