Answer

$35$

Work Step by Step

Using $n!=n(n-1)(n-2)\cdot\cdot\cdot(3)(2)(1)$ or the factorial of a number, the given expression, $ \dfrac{7!}{3!4!} ,$ evaluates to \begin{array}{l}\require{cancel} =\dfrac{7(6)(5)(\cancel{4!})}{3(2)(1)(\cancel{4!})} \\\\= \dfrac{7(\cancel{6})(5)}{\cancel{3(2)}(1)} \\\\= \dfrac{35}{1} \\\\= 35 \end{array}
