Answer

Diverges

Work Step by Step

Apply the ratio test to the Series $\Sigma^{\infty}_{n=0} \frac{n!}{3^n} $ $\lim\limits_{n \to \infty} |\frac{\frac{(n+1)!}{3^{n+1}}}{\frac{n!}{3^n}}|$, Simplify $\lim\limits_{n \to \infty} \frac{(n+1)}{3} = \infty \gt 1$ Because the answer is greater than 1, the series diverges.
