KVPY #3

Suppose that a 2 , a 3 , a 4 , a 5 , a 6 , a 7 a_2, a_3, a_4, a_5, a_6, a_7 are integers such that 5 7 = a 2 2 ! + a 3 3 ! + a 4 4 ! + a 5 5 ! + a 6 6 ! + a 7 7 ! , \frac57=\frac{a_2}{2!}+\frac{a_3}{3!}+\frac{a_4}{4!}+\frac{a_5}{5!}+\frac{a_6}{6!}+\frac{a_7}{7!}, where 0 a j < j 0 \leq a_j < j for j = 2 , 3 , 4 , 5 , 6 , 7. j=2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7.

What is the sum a 2 + a 3 + a 4 + a 5 + a 6 + a 7 ? a_2+a_3+a_4+a_5+a_6+a_7?


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