The least positive integer which makes

n ! < \left[\frac{n+1}{2}\right]^n

is _____, where [ ] is the greatest integer function.

View answer and explanation

Correct option: C

Option C is correct. By testing values of n starting from 1, we find that n=3 is the least positive integer that satisfies the inequality n! < [(n+1)/2]^n.
