A corollary from the famous Wilson's Theorem :
For every composite number n = 4 , ( n − 1 ) ! ≡ 0 ( m o d n ) .
So, 0 is the answer.
50! / 51 = 1x2x3x...17x.....50/51 = 1x2x3x...17x...50/3x17 = 1x2x4x....15x18x...50, No remainder other than zero
50!/51=((1)(2)(3)....(17)(18)....(50))/((3)(17)) ---> the remainder is 0.
As it stands this a very straightforward question - change it to find the remainder from 50!/ 53 and it becomes fiendish because 53 is a prime greater than 50, and therefore not a factor of 50!.
5 1 = 1 7 × 3 and 1 7 , 3 are factors of 5 0 ! so the remainder is 0

51 is equal to 17 times 3. 17 and 3 are factors of 50! as 1 x 2 x 3 x.....x 17 x..........x 49 x 50, so it is divisible by 51. Therefore, the remainder is 0.
