Question:

Make the correct alternative in the following question:

Let P(n): 2n < (1 × 2 × 3 × ... × n). Then the smallest positive integer for which P(n) is true

(a) 1                        

(b) 2                       

(c) 3                       

(d) 4

Solution:

As, 2n < (1 × 2 × 3 × ... × n) is possible only when n "> 4

So, the smallest positive integer for which P(n) is true, is 4.

Hence, the correct alternative is option (d).
