Question

(5 x 2)(10^20)^5


what is the answer

Answer 1

5 x 2 = 10

(10^20)^5 = 10^100

(10) x (10^100) = 10^101 which is 1 followed by 101 zeroes.

Answer 2

10 ^101

Explanation:

(5 x 2)(10^20)^5

5*2 = 10

We know a^b^c = a^(b*c)

(10^20)^5 = 10 ^ (20*5) = 10 ^ 100

10 * 10^100

Replacing 10 with 10^1

10^1 * 10^100

We know that a^b * a^c = a^ (b+c)

10^1 * 10^100 = 10 ^(100+1) = 10 ^101
