COMMENTS
n!/n# is called n compositorial. The actual sequence is (6,7),(10,11),21,(22,23),24,25,27,(30,31),39,48, (52,53),57,65,... where the values in parenthesis yield the same semiprime.
That is, since p!/p# = (p-1)!/(p-1)#, primes never appear in this sequence. - Sean A. Irvine, Jun 30 2020
EXAMPLE
25!/25# + 1 is a product of two primes: 69528040243200001 = 2594807 * 26795071943.
