Answer 2

General Rule: Never use "x" to mean multiplication. Very confusing.

Have you considred writing out a few of the factors of "8!"?

Answer 3

8! is 8*7*6*5*4*3*2*1

Answer 4

Well, the first 3 would have been sufficient.

\(\dfrac{8!}{6!} = \dfrac{8\cdot 7\cdot 6!}{6!}\)

Anything strike you about that?
