Saved a checkpoint:

Fixed it so the first fraction always has a bigger numerator, and the second one always has a bigger denominator.
Wrote some advice.

a2+random(2..4)

JME function reference

Description

Describe what this variable represents, and list any assumptions made about its value.

Can an exam override the value of this variable?

Generated value: `integer`

← Depends on:

This variable doesn't seem to be used anywhere.

Gap-fill

Ask the student a question, and give any hints about how they should answer this part.

$\dfrac{\var{a1}!}{\var{a2}!} =$ Unnamed gap

Advice

a)

$\frac{\var{a1}!}{\var{a2}!} = \frac{\var{show_factorial(1,a1)}}{\var{show_factorial(1,a2)}} = \var{show_factorial(a2+1,a1)} = \var{fact(a1)/fact(a2)}$

b)

$\frac{\var{b1}!}{\var{b2}!} = \frac{\var{show_factorial(1,b1)}}{\var{show_factorial(1,b2)}} = \frac{1}{\var{show_factorial(b1+1,b2)}} = \frac{1}{\var{fact(b2)/fact(b1)}}$
