Given n is a prime number, how many trailing zeroes are in the digit of n! ?
1) n! is divisible by 25
2) n! is not divisible by 125


1) First statement says n! is having minimum two 5. It can be any prime such as 11!, 13!, 17!------------ Not sufficient
2) Second says n! is not having three 5 so it can not be divided by 125....It may be anything below prime 17! such as 13!, 11!, 7!, 5!, 3! ---------Not Sufficient.

Combining 1 and 2

n! factorial would be 11! or 13! ...

Both the choices give only two trailing zeroes.... So the answer is "C"
