Question

3. A googol is a very large number expressed as

10100. Ms. Rogers asked her students to
determine which number is larger, a googol
or 10010. Explain how her students might use
the idea of repeated factors in order to find
the solution.

Answer 1

10^100 is larger than 100^10.

Explanation:

10^100 compared to 100^10, we have 10^100 greater. 100^50 would equal to 10^100, as 10^2=100. 10^100 would be much more than 100^10.

Hope the explanation helps!
