Answer

The expression $ n!$ can be calculated as $ n!=\left( n \right)\cdot \left( n-1 \right)\cdot \left( n-2 \right)\cdot ...\cdot 3\cdot 2\cdot 1$.

Work Step by Step

According to the definition of the factorial of any positive number, $ n!=\left( n \right)\cdot \left( n-1 \right)\cdot \left( n-2 \right)\cdot ...\cdot 3\cdot 2\cdot 1$ That means we get the product of the numbers from 1 to $ n $. Point to be noted $0!=1$.
