Answer:479001600

Explanation:

12 factorial is 12 * 11 * 10 ..... all the way to one

A way to do it by hand is

12 * 1

11 * 2

10 * 3

9 * 4

8 * 5

7 * 6

stop here because 6 * 7 and 5 *8 are already listed

This gives you 6 products then multiply those 6 products by pairs which gives you three pairs which gives you three products then compute a pair then multiply by last product.

Easy math but a lot of written work
