Googling is NOT allowed. I'll give a few clues maybe later.

Here's a little diversion for you math(s) enthusiasts. Makes the exposure triangle seem easy by comparison. Sent to me by my grandson. Here we go.

By using any mathematical symbols but without adding any numbers anywhere can you make all of these formulas work: (you can't alter the right side of the equation, all formulas must equal 6).

0 0 0 = 6
1 1 1 = 6
2 2 2 = 6
3 3 3 = 6
4 4 4 = 6
5 5 5 = 6
7 7 7 = 6
8 8 8 = 6
9 9 9 = 6

Good luck!

I cheated just because inquiring minds want to know. I NEVER would have gotten it right. I've never even heard the term "factorial"

There is one factorial I find interesting. Most calculators will do factorials. Do one on a 52 card deck to see the number of possible hands. The number will blow your mind.
