#

can someone give me a guide on how I can solve for n, it can't be by graphing it.
I wrote a python code that solved it and I got the solution n=9.73 but I need to know how to calculate something like that.

You can’t really solve equations with factorials without code

how

#

i simplified it to

#

but that doesnt help much

#

Oh I fully didn’t consider the fact that you could cancel

#

Factor out (5/6)^(n-1)

#

Then you’ll get a product of two things

#

But (5/6)^(n-1) cannot equal 0 so the other thing cannot be 0

What do we know at this point?

#

I think a product log might be possible to use somehow
