Oh! Sorry, I thought it was an  equation.

then please give a counterexample

just a try...  let a≤b≤c; obviously c!∣(a+b+c)!  (((a+b+c)!)/(c!))=(c+1)(c+2)...(c+a+b)  the number of the factors = a+b  b!=1×2×3×...×b  now each factor of b! is included at least once  in b factors of the form (c+1)(c+2)...(c+b)  this should be easy to see:  if c=b+n ⇒ b∣(c+b−n); 1≤n≤b  the remaining question is, how to show the  “remaining” number is divisible by a  let b+c=n  then (((a+n)!)/(n!))=(n+1)(n+2)...(a+n)  same argument as above
