Factorial is nothing but multiplication.
i.e 56! = 56×55x54×53x52×51x50……………..x1
therefore the value of 56! is divided by 51! and 5! and then it is multiplies and subtracted with 1/46 then you get the figure.
Hope this helps. to be honest its a hell lot os calculations.
Suggestion:- Learn probability perfectly.
For more info watch movie:- The 21. which is a real story.

The Texas Lotto game actually has a much higher probability for winning, relatively speaking. In the Texas Lottery you select 6 from a field of 54. I think this is the multi-state Mega Millions game, though I suppose in Texas it is referred to as the Texas Millions.
I like your vids btw, very clear and concise explanations. Hard to find in a Calc II instructor!

I always say the numbers that are not picked in awhile will show up like picking 1.

Correct! You choose a total of 12 out of 34. Of those 12, 7 ought to be correct to hit the winning number.
Thank you for your quick response.

so you choose a total of 12, and of the seven that making the winning lotto number, you have to have those 7, correct?

Hi Patrick,
I congratulate you about the vids you’re showing. They are very helpful. I have a question though for another lottery scheme. The lottery has a total of 34 numbers of which 7 must be right to win the lottery. But you can pick 12 numbers (out of 34) from which only 7 must be the winning numbers. How do you find this probability?
