Which has greater value?

Algebra Level 1

Which is greater 2 1000 2^{1000} or 25 5 125 255^{125} ?

2 1000 > 25 5 125 2^{1000} > 255^{125} 25 5 125 > 2 1000 255^{125} > 2^{1000} 2 1000 = 25 5 125 2^{1000}=255^{125}

2 8 = 256 2^8=256 2 1000 = ( 2 8 ) 125 = 25 6 125 > 25 5 125 2^{1000}=\left(2^8 \right)^{125}=256^{125}>255^{125}

Let 2 1000 ^{1000} =x

Then

log2 1000 ^{1000} =logx

1000log 2=log x

301.03=log x

10 301.03 ^{301.03} =x


Let 255 125 ^{125} =y

Then

log 255 125 ^{125} =log y

125log 255=log y

300.8125=log y

10 300.8125 ^{300.8125} =y

So 2 1000 ^{1000} >255 125 ^{125}


I know this solution is harder than that of @BLCRAFT Gaming , but it can be basis of many questions of this type

2 1000 = ( 2 8 ) 125 2^{1000} = (2^{8})^{125}

25 5 125 = ( 256 1 ) 125 = ( 2 8 1 ) 125 255^{125} = (256 - 1)^{125} = (2^8 - 1)^{125}

Furthermore:

2 8 > ( 2 8 1 ) 2^8 > (2^8 - 1)

i.e.

2 1000 > 25 5 125 2^{1000} > 255^{125}
