5!=120 now look at the sum it is clear that
after 5! all are divisible by 5!(120) so
take the sum of first four terms i.e.,
1!+2!+3!+4!=33
therefore rem=33.

no need of finding remainder after 5!
(1!+2!+3!+4!)%5!=33%120=33

5!/5! + 6!/5! + .... gives no remainders, so you only have to worry about the first 4 terms.

(1! + 2! + 3! +... 50!)/5!
= 1!/5! + 2!/5! + 3!/5! + 4!/5! + ... 50!/5!
= (1! + 2! + 3! + 4!)/5! + .... 50!/5!

(1! + 2! + 3! + 4!)/5!
= (1 + 2*1 + 3*2*1 + 4*3*2*1)/5!
= (1+2+6+24)/5!
= (33)/5!
= (33)/(5*4*3*2*1)
= (11)/(5*4*2*1)
= 11/(40)

Remainder 11
