Practice Factorial in Math

Use these practice problems to test your method after reviewing the concept explanation and worked examples.

Quick Recap

The factorial of a non-negative integer n, written n!, is the product of all positive integers from 1 to n: n!=n⋅(n−1)⋯2⋅1.

Factorial counts the number of ways to arrange n distinct objects in a row — for 3 items, there are 3!=6 possible orderings.
