((1^2 ∙2!+2^2 ∙3!+3^2 ∙4!+∙∙∙+n^2 (n+1)!−2)/((n+1)!))=108  n=?

$$\frac{\mathrm{1}^{\mathrm{2}} \centerdot\mathrm{2}!+\mathrm{2}^{\mathrm{2}} \centerdot\mathrm{3}!+\mathrm{3}^{\mathrm{2}} \centerdot\mathrm{4}!+\centerdot\centerdot\centerdot+{n}^{\mathrm{2}} \left({n}+\mathrm{1}\right)!−\mathrm{2}}{\left({n}+\mathrm{1}\right)!}=\mathrm{108} \\ $$$${n}=? \\ $$

((1^2 ∙2!+2^2 ∙3!+3^2 ∙4!+∙∙∙+n^2 (n+1)!−2)/((n+1)!))=108  LHS can be proved to be equal to  n^2 +n−2   (For the proof see Q#161860 &   Q#161861)    ∴        n^2 +n−2=108               n^2 +n−110=0              (n−10)(n+11)=0             n=10  ∣   n=−11(rejeted)
