Question

Prove that the product of 2n consecutive negative integers is divisible by (2n!).

✓

Answer

We have, Product by, $=\big[(2\text{n}+1)(2\text{n}+3)(2\text{n}+5)....(2\text{n}+\text{r})\big]$ $=\frac{(2\text{n})\big[(2\text{n+1})(2\text{n+3})....(2\text{n}+\text{r})\big]}{(2\text{n}!)}$ $=\frac{(2\text{n}+\text{r})!}{(2\text{n})!}$ Hence r = 2n $=\frac{(2\text{n}+2\text{n})!}{2\text{n}}$ $=\frac{(4\text{n})!}{(2\text{n})!}$ $=(2\text{n})!$
