<p>12! - 479001595 = 5 So, we need to write 5 in binary. Start by dividing 5 by 2, which gives 2 as the quotient and 1 as the remainder. Next, divide 2 by 2, which gives 1 as the quotient and 0 as the remainder. Divide 1 by 2 to get 0 as the quotient and 1 as the remainder. Now write the remainders from bottom to top to get 101 (binary of 5).</p>
