\(\sf 9! \rightarrow 9 \times 8 \times 7 \times 6 \times 5 \times 4 \times 3 \times 2 \times 1\)

OpenStudy (igreen):

\(\sf \dfrac{ 9 \times 8 \times 7 \times 6 \times 5 \times 4 \times 3 \times 2}{7 \times 6 \times 5 \times 4 \times 3 \times 2 \times 2}\)

OpenStudy (igreen):

We can take out the one's because multiplying by 1 doesn't change anything.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

What do I do with that? Multiply the top then the bottom and divide?

OpenStudy (igreen):

\(\sf \dfrac{ 9 \times 8 \times \cancel 7 \times \cancel 6 \times \cancel 5 \times \cancel 4 \times \cancel 3 \times \cancel 2}{\cancel 7 \times \cancel 6 \times \cancel 5 \times \cancel 4 \times \cancel 3 \times \cancel 2 \times 2}\)

OpenStudy (igreen):

We cancel out the similar numbers.

OpenStudy (igreen):

Leaving us with: \(\sf \dfrac{9 \times 8}{2}\) Simplify
