A = 1 2 × 2 2 × 3 2 × 4 2 × 5 2 × 6 2 × 7 2 × 8 2 × 9 2 × 1 0 2
B = 1 ! × 2 ! × 3 ! × 4 ! × 5 ! × 6 ! × 7 ! × 8 ! × 9 ! × 1 0 !
C = A × B
The last three digits of C are a , b , c respectively
What is a × b × c ?

The last digit of A and B is 0,because 1 0 ! and 1 0 2 contains a 10 and multiplying by 10 adds a 0 to a number , so a = 0 , b = 0 .Since anything multiplied by 0 is 0, a × b × c = 0 .
As A already contains at least product of 1 0 3 , thus, the value of A ends with 0 0 0 . Thus, after being multiplied by B , it can only increase the number of 0 ′ s behind. Thus, C ends with 0 0 0 .
Hence, a x b x c = 0 x 0 x 0 = 0
A can be rewritten as 1 0 ! ⋅ 1 0 ! and hence A × B = ( 1 0 ! ) 3 × x . (Let's say x = 1 ! × 2 ! × … × 9 ! , we just want the last three digits). Well, we know ( 1 0 ! ) 3 ends with six 0 's, so multiplying it with x will give more than six 0 's. That's enough to conclude that the last three digits are 0 0 0 . Thus, a × b × c = 0 × 0 × 0 = 0 .

in 10! or 10 square last digit is 10 so no matter whichever digit you multiply with it is 0. So, one need not find the other two last digits. Ans : 0
