I solved it myself and my result is (n+1)/n. Why is that 1/2 there? An explanation would be great if possible. Thanks!

Answer:

The product of (k + 1) series starts with 3 (because k = 2) and you need 2 to be multiplied to this in order to get (n + 1)!

Therefore you need to multiply 2 and 1/2 to make it right. 2 completes the factorial and 1/2 remains.

Hope it was clear explanation.

crimeas [40]

Let no. of pens be x.

Pens : x
Pencils: x+8

Total: 2x+8

Student takes 1 pen and 5 pencils.

Remainder: 2x+8 - 5 -1 = 2x+2
2x+2 = 26
2x= 24
x = 12 (original no. of pens)
x+ 8 = 20 (original no of pencils)

There are 12 pens at first and 20 pencils.
After 1 pen is taken, 11 pens are left.
After 5 pencils are taken, 20-5=15 pencils are left.
