(1*2*3_________*200) is a number. how many Zeros will be their in the end.???? pls explain
Dear Shivam Bhagat, Your Question is (1*2*3*............................*200) ends with ........................ zeros. Ans: It can be solved using Number Theory , So,you like to find no. of zeros at the end of (1*2*3*............................*200) i.e., 200! = [200/5]+[200/25]+[200/125] =40+8+1 =49 Therefore at end of 200! there are 49 zeros. Example. Let us find the no. of zeros at the end of X! =[X/5]+[X/25]+[X/125]+....................... ( Denominators are the increasing powers of 5 ) Where [.] denotes the Integral value. All The Best. Surya Anuraag, Your Freind.
Dear Shivam Bhagat,
Your Question is (1*2*3*............................*200) ends with ........................ zeros.
Ans: It can be solved using Number Theory ,
So,you like to find no. of zeros at the end of (1*2*3*............................*200) i.e., 200!
= [200/5]+[200/25]+[200/125] =40+8+1 =49
Therefore at end of 200! there are 49 zeros.
Example. Let us find the no. of zeros at the end of X!
=[X/5]+[X/25]+[X/125]+....................... ( Denominators are the increasing powers of 5 )
Where [.] denotes the Integral value.
All The Best.

Dear student, Note that 200! = 200 x 199 x 198 x … x 3 x 2 x 1, by definition. Finding how many zeros 200! ends with is the same as finding how many consecutive times 200! can be divided by ten without leaving a remainder. To this end, let us try to compute how many 5′s are in the prime factorization of 200!. Each of 5, 10, 15, …, 200 has a factor of 5 in it, so that gives 40 fives in the prime factorization of 200!. In addition, each of 25, 50, 75, …, 200 has a second factor of 5 that we haven’t counted yet, which gives 8 more fives in the prime factorization of 200!. Finally, 125 has a third factor of 5, which gives one additional factor of 5 in the prime factorization of 200!. So 200! = 5^49 * (some number not divisible by 5). It should be evident that 200! has many, many more copies of 2 in its prime factorization than it has copies of 5. (I won’t compute exactly how many copies of 2 it has, because it’s not necessary.) So we can write 200! = 2^49 * 5^49 * (some number not divisible by 5). Thus, we can divide 200! by 10 only forty-nine times; after that we get a number that isn’t divisible by 5, hence not by 10 either. So 200! ends in forty-nine zeros.
