number of zeroes in 242! = [242/5] + [242/5^2] + [242/5^3] + [242/5^4]
= 48 + 9 + 1 + 0
= 58 - 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(2) No(0)
- for finding number of zeroes we use to divide the number by a prime number until the numerator become less than the number... in this case number of 2s will be more so number of 5 will decide the number of zeroes
now,
242/5=48/5=9/5=1
adding 48+9+1=58 - 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(0)
