Steps
y-6=3
Group all constants on the right side of the equation.
Add 6 to both sides
y-6+6=3+6
Simplify the arithmetic
y=3+6
Simplify the arithmetic
y=9
Answer y=9

pocohantas:
Lol

50% would fail it.
98% would not even attempt it.

Olodo, speak for yourself. That's Factorial.
No brain to solve this simple equation but we are waiting for the next thread where you'd deploy all your energy in writing a foolscap sheet of senselesness.

-Osu amaka

The answer is 9. Na simple linear equation joor. Pry 5 work.

Can you tell this to a POS operator?give yourself brain no let kids begin laugh u oo...na 9 be the correct answer

Lol, this is not just a simple open sentence, as it is called in Pry Maths.

3! means 3 factorial which equals 3×2×1 = 6.

The value of the unknown (y) is 12.

jericco1:
I wonder how you people got 12.

Una go just dey one place dey create countless problems for person

Funny

Obinoscopy:
Just state your answer. Don't show the working please.

12 boo. You no know factoria?

Y-6=3!
3!= 3×2×1=6
Y-6=6
Add +6 to sides
Y-6+6=6+6
-6+6 will cancel out
Y=12
Answer y=12

Funny

I had forgotten that it had factorial symbol beside it.

Temptee101:


You just choose the ones you like and discard the rest

You no want wetin go give u headache.

Yes o! Na so lecturer write on board a mathematical problem and aksed one olodo to solve the problem, my guy got up majestically, grab chalk, grab duster, get to the board use duster clean everything on the board and write problem solved.

lampi:
olodo, so u didn't see the factorial

Ogbeni, I was telling that guy to note the factorial symbol before solving the equation

do4luv14:



Naso you go use fail maths, factorial indeed

Alaye!!! Check the thing well

Fame1309:

It's exclamation mark

You mean exclamation mark in a Mathematics question?

eddynaira125:
12


No ask me how I get the answer

I go ask you oo..You can't just do wuruwuru for us now..Lol

11

Bar1941:
12

3! Is called 3 factorials which means 3×2×1= 6

Y - 6 =3! literally means Y - 6 = 6

Y= 6+ 6 which is 12.

Haha

Wahala no dey finish.

How I wish this maths will add some millions to my account but unfortunately it won't. On funny thing is that many successful and rich guys don't know this maths so it makes me to wonder of what benefit will this be to me .....after thinking for so long I discovered that it won't benefit me in any way, so as a result of this I hereby say "to hell with the maths"

All we see here in this forum is this challenge and that challenge, but never will you see common sense challenge. Tssk.

AlphaT1:

Hahahaha na only who know answer de talk say de question dey simple. No matter how simple it looks, people will beautifully fail it. You see that symbol "!" wey follow 3 no be punctuation mark o, dem de call am "factorial"...3! means 3x2x1 = 6.....5! means 5x4x3x2x1 =120
Thus,
Y-6 = 3!
Y-6 = 6
Y = 6+6 = 12

I didn't see d factoral sign..
If its there, then d answer is 12

Simple

Alusiizizi:

You even took the time to show how you arrived at the wrong answer.

If it is Y-6=3, then d right answer is 9
But
If it is Y-6=3!, u r right.. I got it wrong. The answer is 12.
Big mistake. Not properly checking questions before answering has caused many failures.

That's ok. Don't be despondent though, in truth trick questions are never justifiable.

Lolz. Person fit see de 3 but e no go see de factorial for dis question? Kaiiiii you be confirm naija.

Na u kno...

Wetin I solve na Y-6=3 (n I correctly got d answer as 9)
Or is dt wrong?

If there is a factorial, which I missed inexplicably, the answer changes.

So be calming down... D question was a trick question, n anything can happen.

Answer is 12.

12

Factorial: Denoted by the exclamation mark (!). Factorial means to multiply by decreasing positive
! = Fraction of the number and if applied to the maths
The answer stands at 3! = 3+2+1 = 6

12- 6 = 6 = 3!

Name is Factorial.

n! = n X (n-1) X (n-2) X ... X 1

DrFunmisticGlow:
it's C

That exclamation mark means 3x2x1=6
I have forgotten what they call it

Haven't done mathematics is 12 years. Sue me.

Sirjamesjnr dear, food is ready

the answer is 12
