All comments are subject to approval before they are published, so they will not appear immediately. Comments should be civil, relevant, and substantive. Anonymous comments are not allowed and will be unceremoniously deleted. For more on my comments policy, please see this entry on my other blog.
AND A NEW RULE (per this post): comments critical of Trump's lying must include criticism of Biden's or Kamala's or some prominent leftie's lying on a one-for-one basis! Failure to be balanced means your comment will not be published.
So the problem is:
ReplyDelete2023! / (2022! + 2021!)
If you remember your factorials, then you know you can rewrite the numerator as
2023•2022•2021!
In the denominator, you can rewrite 2022! as
2022•2021!
So now, you have a fraction that looks like this:
(2023•2022•2021!) / [(2022•2021!) + 2021!]
In the denominator, you can factor out the 2021!, so now your fraction looks like this:
(2023•2022•2021!) / 2021!(2022 + 1)
The (2022 + 1) obviously becomes 2023, so you now have this fraction:
(2023•2022•2021!) / 2021!(2023)
As you can see, the 2023s and 2021!s cancel each other out, so all you have left is
2022.
QED.
