If \(n! = n*(n - 1)*(n - 2)*...*1\), where n is a positive integer, which of the following is (are) true?

I. 26 is not a factor of 25!
2*13 is a factor of 25!

II. 29 is a factor of 25!
29 is a prime number and only happen if till 29! happens therefore not a factor

III. 1,000,000 is a factor of 25!
Yes since 5^6 is a factor and 2^19 is a factor

Therefore IMO B

­Can someone debrief like how 2X13 is a factor of 13? How 2^19 and 5^6 factor ?
OR can someone attach me reference for this topic?

Thank you.
