Question

Find x in each of the following:

\[\frac{1}{4!} + \frac{1}{5!} = \frac{x}{6!}\]
Advertisements

Solution

\[ \frac{1}{4!} + \frac{1}{5!} = \frac{x}{6!}\]
\[ \Rightarrow \frac{1}{4!} + \frac{1}{5(4!)} = \frac{x}{6!}\]
\[ \Rightarrow \frac{5 + 1}{5(4!)} = \frac{x}{6!}\]
\[ \Rightarrow \frac{6}{5!} = \frac{x}{6!}\]
\[ \Rightarrow \frac{6}{5!} = \frac{x}{6 \times 5!}\]
\[ \Rightarrow x = 36\]
