The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem where \( nC_{12} = nC_{13} \), we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the relationship between combinations We know that the combination formula states: \[ nC_r = \frac{n!}{r!(n-r)!} \] From the problem, we have: \[ nC_{12} = nC_{13} \] ### Step 2: Use the property of combinations Using the property of combinations, we can express \( nC_{13} \) in terms of \( nC_{12} \): \[ nC_{13} = nC_{12} \implies nC_{12} = nC_{12} \] This implies: \[ nC_{12} = nC_{n-13} \] Thus, we can set: \[ n - 12 = 13 \] ### Step 3: Solve for \( n \) From the equation \( n - 12 = 13 \), we can solve for \( n \): \[ n = 13 + 12 = 25 \] ### Step 4: Find the value of \( 25C_n \) Now we need to find \( 25C_n \) where \( n = 25 \): \[ 25C_{25} = \frac{25!}{25!(25-25)!} = \frac{25!}{25! \cdot 0!} \] ### Step 5: Simplify the expression Since \( 0! = 1 \), we have: \[ 25C_{25} = \frac{25!}{25! \cdot 1} = 1 \] ### Final Answer Thus, the value of \( 25C_n \) is: \[ \boxed{1} \] ---
