Factorial Calculator

n! = n × (n-1) × (n-2) × ... × 2 × 1. Used in combinatorics and probability.

What this calculator does

5! = 120. 10! = 3,628,800. 20! = 2,432,902,008,176,640,000.

When to use this calculator

This tool is most valuable when you need a result to compare against something else: a quoted figure, a competing option, or a budget threshold. Accurate comparisons require accurate inputs and arithmetic — this calculator ensures both.

Common mistakes

Many errors with this type of calculation stem from unit inconsistency: mixing metric and imperial, or mixing annual and monthly rates. Ensure all inputs use the same unit system before running the calculation.

Real-world scenarios

A shopper sees two versions of the same product at different prices: one at £14.50 for 400g and another at £11.99 for 300g. Running both price-per-gram calculations reveals the larger pack is 7% cheaper per unit — the kind of comparison that is impossible to do reliably in your head at the shelf.
