Detailed Solution

 For an to be greatest, consider this anan-1 i.e an increases with increase in n ) 

1000n(n)!1000n-1n-1!

1000n11000nn1000

100010001000!=10001100021000309981000999100010001000

 which is equal to the 999th term since the last factor is 10001000 is 1

 After the 1000th term we will be multinlving by a fraction less than 1  beginning with multiplying by 10001001 and so the sequence will   begin to decrease with the 1001st term. 

 So the 999 th and the 1000 th terms, which are equal, are the largest  terms of the sequence. Theretore  the sequence attains maximum at  exactly two values of n,999 and 1000.
