Question Number 125108 by peter frank last updated on 08/Dec/20

Commented by mr W last updated on 08/Dec/20

where did you get these questions?  they are wrong, i.e. there is no  solution.  the last digit of 2^(any integer)  can only  be 2,4,6,8. but the last digit of n!  is always 0 for n≥5. that means:  n!≠2^m

maybe the usual confusion of n! and Γ (n+1)

(a) 294!<2^(1994) <295!  (b) 9!<2^(20) <10!

$$\left({a}\right)\:\mathrm{294}!<\mathrm{2}^{\mathrm{1994}} <\mathrm{295}! \\ $$$$\left({b}\right)\:\mathrm{9}!<\mathrm{2}^{\mathrm{20}} <\mathrm{10}! \\ $$
