Question

Find x in each of the following:

\[\frac{x}{10!} = \frac{1}{8!} + \frac{1}{9!}\]
Advertisements

Solution

\[ \frac{x}{10!} = \frac{1}{8!} + \frac{1}{9!}\]
\[ \Rightarrow \frac{x}{10!} = \frac{1}{8!} + \frac{1}{9(8!)}\]
\[ \Rightarrow \frac{x}{10!} = \frac{9 + 1}{9(8!)} \]
\[ \Rightarrow \frac{x}{10!} = \frac{10}{9!}\]
\[ \Rightarrow \frac{x}{10 \times 9!} = \frac{10}{9!}\]
\[ \Rightarrow x = 100\]
