Number Theory – Remainder When $1! + 2! + 3! +\cdots+ 1000!$ is Divided by $12$

Question

What is the remainder when $$1! + 2! + 3! +\cdots+ 1000!$$ is divided by $12$.

I have tried to find the answer using the Binomial Theorem but that doesn't help.
How will we do this?

Please help.

Answer 1

If $n\ge 4$, then $4!=24$ divides $n!$ $-$ in particular $12$ divides $n!$ when $\ge 4$.

Thus $$ 1!+2!+\cdots+1000!=1!+2!+3! \!\!\!\!\pmod{12}=9\!\!\!\!\pmod{12}. $$
