5!6!=(17+1/7)7! ⇒ answer is 7!/7=6!=720

$$\mathrm{5}!\mathrm{6}!=\left(\mathrm{17}+\mathrm{1}/\mathrm{7}\right)\mathrm{7}!\:\Rightarrow\:{answer}\:{is}\:\mathrm{7}!/\mathrm{7}=\mathrm{6}!=\mathrm{720} \\ $$

but it is!  ((5!6!)/(7!))=((5!6!)/(6!×7))=((5!)/7)=((120)/7)=17+(1/7)  ⇒  5!6!=(17+(1/7))7!=17×7!+((7!)/7)=17×7!+6!  ⇒ 6!=720 is the remainder

$${but}\:{it}\:{is}! \\ $$$$\frac{\mathrm{5}!\mathrm{6}!}{\mathrm{7}!}=\frac{\mathrm{5}!\mathrm{6}!}{\mathrm{6}!×\mathrm{7}}=\frac{\mathrm{5}!}{\mathrm{7}}=\frac{\mathrm{120}}{\mathrm{7}}=\mathrm{17}+\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{7}} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow \\ $$$$\mathrm{5}!\mathrm{6}!=\left(\mathrm{17}+\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{7}}\right)\mathrm{7}!=\mathrm{17}×\mathrm{7}!+\frac{\mathrm{7}!}{\mathrm{7}}=\mathrm{17}×\mathrm{7}!+\mathrm{6}! \\ $$$$\Rightarrow\:\mathrm{6}!=\mathrm{720}\:{is}\:{the}\:{remainder} \\ $$
