AHSME 1999 Problem 25

    There are unique integers a2,a3,a4,a5,a6,a7a_{2},a_{3},a_{4},a_{5},a_{6},a_{7} such that 57=a22!+a33!+a44!+a55!+a66!+a77!\frac {5}{7} = \frac {a_{2}}{2!} + \frac {a_{3}}{3!} + \frac {a_{4}}{4!} + \frac {a_{5}}{5!} + \frac {a_{6}}{6!} + \frac {a_{7}}{7!} where 0≤ai<i0\leq a_{i} < i for i=2,3,…,7i = 2,3,\ldots,7. Find a2+a3+a4+a5+a6+a7a_{2} + a_{3} + a_{4} + a_{5} + a_{6} + a_{7}. (A) 8(B) 9(C) 10(D) 11(E) 12\textrm{(A)} \ 8 \textrm{(B)} \ 9 \textrm{(C)} \ 10 \textrm{(D)} \ 11 \textrm{(E)} \ 12
