Question
Using Binomial Theorem, indicate which number is larger (1.1)10000 or 1000.
Solution
By splitting 1.1 and then applying Binomial Theorem, the first few terms of (1.1)10000 can be obtained as
(1.1)10000 = (1 + 0.1)10000
=
= 1 + 10000 x (0.1) + …. = 1001 +…
It is clear that the number (1.1)10000 is greater than 1000.
Hence, (1.1)10000 > 1000
