RE: (998-1)(998-2)(998-3)…………..(998-n)=------- ...

   The above problem result is zero bcz n=998 in one position.
             our condition is n>1000
but we give up to so on (998-1)(998-2)(998-3)(998-4)………..(998-998)(998-999)(998-1000) (998-n)
                      n>1000
1 is not greater then 1000
how it is possible (998-1)

RE: (998-1)(998-2)(998-3)…………..(998-n)=------- ...

As n is greater than 1000. but you have not observed that n is getting reduced by one in each step. so at certain point n will become 998. And 998-998 will be '0'. Therefore the answer is '0'.

RE: (998-1)(998-2)(998-3)…………..(998-n)=------- ...

The Q is (998-1)(998-2)(998-3)…………..(998-n)=------- (n>1000)

as u solve it u will be in a position that
(998-1)(998-2)(998-3)…………..(998-998)(998-999)(998-1000)------(998-n)

so means at some position it is (998-998)
means answer will be zero

Is this answer useful? Yes | No
