Problem

Find $\left \lceil {\frac{3!+4!+5!+6!}{2+3+4+5+6}} \right \rceil$

$\textbf{(A)}\ 42\qquad\textbf{(B)}\ 43\qquad\textbf{(C)}\ 44\qquad\textbf{(D)}\ 45\qquad\textbf{(E)}\ 46$

Solution

We have \[\frac{6+24+120+720}{20} = \frac{87}{2} = \lfloor 43.5 \rfloor \implies \boxed{\textbf{(B)}\ 43}\]
