1 times 2 times 3 times 4 times 5 times 6 times 7 time 8...

Step 1: Write equation

To write the equation, we will show the multiplication on the left side, and show the answer on the right. We will use the variable a to represent our final answer.

1 × 2 × 3 × 4 × 5 × 6 × 7 × 8= a

Step 2: Solve

To solve the equation, let’s do it part by part. This means that we will multiply each number by the one directly next to it, and continue doing so until we reach our answer. Let’s do this now!

1 × 2 × 3 × 4 × 5 × 6 × 7 × 8= a
2 × 3 × 4 × 5 × 6 × 7 × 8= a
6 × 4 × 5 × 6 × 7 × 8= a
24 × 5 × 6 × 7 × 8= a
120 × 6 × 7 × 8= a
720 × 7 × 8= a
5,040 × 8= a
40,320= a

This is our answer! When multiplying all of the answers together, you get 40,320. Hope this helps! Comment below for more questions.
