What is the largest integer N such that 7^N = (1000!)/(500!)^2?
I think there is something missing.
You only have one unknown and an = sign therefore there is just one answer.
maybe it should be > or < ?
Also, (1000!)/(500!)^2 is a huge number. I've tried to do it on a couple of calculators and they just give error messages or do nothing at all. I've never seen that before. I am assuming that they just won't handle factorials of this size. The question can still be answered but not simplified.
This might not matter if the question is a bit different.
