computed and counted  a) 45  b) 15  there′s no other way to know all zeros

n! has [(n/5)]+[(n/5^2 )]+[(n/5^3 )]+... zero in right hand  so 100! has [((100)/5)]+[((100)/(25))]+[((100)/(125))]=20+4=24  and  25! has [((25)/5)]+[((25)/(25))]=6   100!×25! has 24×6=144  zero in right hand  100!+25! bas 6 (min{24,6})zero in right hand

$${n}!\:{has}\:\left[\frac{{n}}{\mathrm{5}}\right]+\left[\frac{{n}}{\mathrm{5}^{\mathrm{2}} }\right]+\left[\frac{{n}}{\mathrm{5}^{\mathrm{3}} }\right]+...\:{zero}\:{in}\:{right}\:{hand} \\ $$$${so}\:\mathrm{100}!\:{has}\:\left[\frac{\mathrm{100}}{\mathrm{5}}\right]+\left[\frac{\mathrm{100}}{\mathrm{25}}\right]+\left[\frac{\mathrm{100}}{\mathrm{125}}\right]=\mathrm{20}+\mathrm{4}=\mathrm{24} \\ $$$${and}\:\:\mathrm{25}!\:{has}\:\left[\frac{\mathrm{25}}{\mathrm{5}}\right]+\left[\frac{\mathrm{25}}{\mathrm{25}}\right]=\mathrm{6}\: \\ $$$$\mathrm{100}!×\mathrm{25}!\:{has}\:\mathrm{24}×\mathrm{6}=\mathrm{144}\:\:{zero}\:{in}\:{right}\:{hand} \\ $$$$\mathrm{100}!+\mathrm{25}!\:{bas}\:\mathrm{6}\:\left({min}\left\{\mathrm{24},\mathrm{6}\right\}\right){zero}\:{in}\:{right}\:{hand} \\ $$
