The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to compare Quantity A and Quantity B, which are defined as follows: - **Quantity A**: The product of all integers from 2 to 23, inclusive. - **Quantity B**: The product of all integers from 5 to 24, inclusive. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Define Quantity A**: \[ A = 2 \times 3 \times 4 \times 5 \times 6 \times \ldots \times 23 \] 2. **Define Quantity B**: \[ B = 5 \times 6 \times 7 \times 8 \times \ldots \times 24 \] 3. **Identify Common Factors**: Both quantities share the product of integers from 5 to 23. Therefore, we can express both quantities in terms of these common factors: \[ A = (2 \times 3 \times 4) \times (5 \times 6 \times 7 \times \ldots \times 23) \] \[ B = (5 \times 6 \times 7 \times \ldots \times 23) \times (24) \] 4. **Simplify Quantity A**: Calculate the product of the integers from 2 to 4: \[ 2 \times 3 \times 4 = 24 \] Thus, we can rewrite Quantity A as: \[ A = 24 \times (5 \times 6 \times 7 \times \ldots \times 23) \] 5. **Rewrite Quantity B**: We can also express Quantity B as: \[ B = (5 \times 6 \times 7 \times \ldots \times 23) \times 24 \] 6. **Comparison of Quantities**: Since both quantities A and B can be expressed as: \[ A = 24 \times (5 \times 6 \times 7 \times \ldots \times 23) \] \[ B = (5 \times 6 \times 7 \times \ldots \times 23) \times 24 \] It is clear that: \[ A = B \] ### Conclusion: Thus, we conclude that Quantity A is equal to Quantity B. ### Final Answer: **Quantity A = Quantity B**
