What is
Solution 1
Therefore, the equation is equal to
Solution for certain China test papers:
~Aray10 (Main Solution) and RULE101 (Modifications for certain China test papers)
Solution 2
Factoring out gives Since , the answer is ~Tacos_are_yummy_1
Factoring also works, it just makes the expression in the parenthesis a little harder to compute.
Solution 3
Note that must be divisible by , and is the only option divisible by .
Solution 4
can be split into two parts, and . We can break the into The part makes , and the part makes , which is . We still have the 7!, and we can multiply it by . This is clearly equivalent to , so our solution is .
Solution 5
, , and . Of course, if you're fast enough, you can do . Therefore, .
