Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) 14

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(40^{ n }=2^{3 n } \times 5^{ n }\) \(E _2(60!)=\left[\frac{60}{2}\right]+\left[\frac{60}{2^2}\right]+\left[\frac{60}{2^3}\right]+\left[\frac{60}{2^4}\right]+\left[\frac{60}{2^5}\right]\) \(=30+15+7+3+1=56\) \(E _5(60!)=\left[\frac{60}{5}\right]+\left[\frac{60}{5^2}\right]\)…
