A number theory problem by Hemanth K

How many digits are there in the number 100 ! 50 ! \dfrac{100!}{50!} when written in decimal representation?

You may find the following approximations useful.

  • 5 ! = 120 5! = 120 has 3 digits.
  • log 10 2 0.3010 \log_{10} 2 \approx 0.3010 .
  • log 10 3 0.4771 \log_{10} 3 \approx 0.4771 .
  • log 10 7 0.8451 \log_{10} 7 \approx 0.8451 .

Notation : ! ! denotes the factorial notation. For example, 8 ! = 1 × 2 × 3 × × 8 8! = 1\times2\times3\times\cdots\times8 .

106 100 88 94 82
