What is the greatest value of x such that 10^x is a factor of 20! ?
A. 1
B. 2
C. 3
D. 4
E. 5
10 = 2*5
The highest value of 2 in 20! will be - 18
20/2 = 10
10/2 = 5
5/2 = 2
2/2 = 1
The highest value of 5 in 20! will be - 4
20/5 = 4
Since, there are fewer 5's than 2 , the greatest value of x such that 10^x is a factor of 20! will be x = 4
Hence, correct answer will be (D) 4
