SUMMARY

This discussion focuses on solving four distinct mathematical challenges: determining the number of pairs (m, n) satisfying the equation 2m - 2n = 63, finding the units digit of 625 - 324, calculating the number of perfect squares that divide 4!*5!*6!, and identifying the last digit of the sum 1! + 2! + 3! + ... + 2011!. The participants emphasize the importance of demonstrating effort in problem-solving. Ultimately, the original poster successfully solved all the problems presented.

1. Find the number of pairs (m, n) such that 2m - 2n = 63 in which m and n are nonnegative integers.

2. What is the units digit of 625 - 324 ?

3. How many perfect squares divide the number 4!*5!*6! ?

4. What is the last digit of the sum 1! + 2! + 3! + ... + 2010! + 2011! ?

Thanks!

it does not quite work like that...you need to show some genuine effort of what you have tried and show us where you are stuck, etc.
 
Yeah, sorry, never mind. I got them solved.
