Question
Which is larger (1.01)1000000 or 10,000?

Answer

Splitting 1.01 and using binomial theorem to write the first few terms we have
(1.1)10000 = (1 + 0.1)10000. Using binomial theorem
= 1000000C0 + 1000000C1(0.01) + other positive terms
= 1 + 10000 (0.01) + other positive terms
= 1 + 1000 + other positive terms
> 10000.
Therefore,(1.01)1000000 > 10000
