The first theorem uses a paper of \textit{D. Kim} [J. Number Theory 74, 307--336 (1999; Zbl 0920.11067)] to show that for fixed primes \(p_{1}, \ldots , p_{k},\) and for fixed integers \(m_{1}, \ldots , m_{k},\) with \(p_{i}| m_{i},\) the numbers \((e_{p_{1}}(n), \ldots, e_{p_{k}}(n))\) are uniformly distributed modulo \((m_{1}, \ldots , m_{k}),\) where \(e_{p}(n)\) is the order of the prime \(p\) in the factorization of \(n!.\) That implies one of Sander's conjectures from [\textit{J. W. Sander}, J. Number Theory 90, 316--328 (2001; Zbl 1024.11010)] for any set of odd primes. The second result gives a partial solution of a problem due to \textit{D. Berend} [J. Number Theory 64, 13--19 (1997; Zbl 0874.11025)].
