Calculate the multifactorial 30!4
We have 4 exclamation symbols (!)
Start at 30
Iterate backwards in steps of 4
Stop when we hit 1 or below
For term 1, we start with 30
Subtract -1 x 4 = -4 to get n(n - -4)
(n - -4) → 30 - -4 = 26
Our factorial term is:
30(26)
Subtract -1 x 4 = -4 to get n(n - -4)(n - -4)
(n - -4) → 30 - -4 = 22
Our factorial term is:
30(26)(22)
Subtract -1 x 4 = -4 to get n(n - -4)(n - -4)(n - -4)
(n - -4) → 30 - -4 = 18
Our factorial term is:
30(26)(22)(18)
Subtract -1 x 4 = -4 to get n(n - -4)(n - -4)(n - -4)(n - -4)
(n - -4) → 30 - -4 = 14
Our factorial term is:
30(26)(22)(18)(14)
Subtract -1 x 4 = -4 to get n(n - -4)(n - -4)(n - -4)(n - -4)(n - -4)
(n - -4) → 30 - -4 = 10
Our factorial term is:
30(26)(22)(18)(14)(10)
Subtract -1 x 4 = -4 to get n(n - -4)(n - -4)(n - -4)(n - -4)(n - -4)(n - -4)
(n - -4) → 30 - -4 = 6
Our factorial term is:
30(26)(22)(18)(14)(10)(6)
Subtract -1 x 4 = -4 to get n(n - -4)(n - -4)(n - -4)(n - -4)(n - -4)(n - -4)(n - -4)
(n - -4) → 30 - -4 = 2
Our factorial term is:
30(26)(22)(18)(14)(10)(6)(2)
30!4 = n(n - -4)(n - -4)(n - -4)(n - -4)(n - -4)(n - -4)(n - -4)...
30!4 = 30(26)(22)(18)(14)(10)(6)(2)
