Respuesta :
This still counts as a way of arranging it, so by definition, a zero factorial is equal to one, just as 1! is equal to one because there is only a single possible arrangement of this data set
Answer:
you can see the factorial as many different ways, i will only show you two
- first way
you can see [tex]n!=\frac{(n+1)!}{n+1}[/tex]
so 0! would mean that
[tex]0!=\frac{(0+1)!}{0+1}=\frac{1!}{1} =1/1=1[/tex]
- second way
the other way you can see factorial is as the number of ways to order n things
let's say we have
a b and c and we want to arrange them in all possible ways so those are
abc
acb
bac
bca
cab
cba
and no more
for just a and b
we have
ab
ba
and no more
for just a
we have only
a
for no objects we have
that way, the one that it's upward, it's a bit philosophical but i hope you understand it
