Solution

The correct option is C


Sπ = 1(1!) + 2(2!) + 3(3!) + ...... + n(n!)

= (2 - 1)(1!) + (3 -1)(2!) + (4 - 1)(3!) + .......+ [(n+1) - 1](n!)

= (2.1! - 1!) + (3.2! - 2!) + (4.3! - 3!) + ...... + [(n+1)(n!) - (n!)]

= (2! - 1!) + (3! - 2!) + (4! - 3!) + ..... + [(n+1)! - (n)!]

= (n+1)! - 1!.
