Given that 2.004

OpenStudy (anonymous):

10101 in binary? then 210 shouldn't be binary....

OpenStudy (anonymous):

( 101101)base2=( 45)decimal binary no always power of 2 therefore 2power 6= 64 hence 6 digit req..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

brilliant!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it is 101^101

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@ParthKohli

OpenStudy (anonymous):

help!

Parth (parthkohli):

Well, find out \(\log_{10} 101^{101}\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

then

Parth (parthkohli):

That's it.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

that is the no. of digits?

Parth (parthkohli):

Yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

how log can help calculate no. of digits?

Parth (parthkohli):

Yes, it does. Try it!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

202 is incorrect

Parth (parthkohli):

You also have to consider the assumptions given in your question.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what else is given?

Parth (parthkohli):

Actually, you have to find \(1 + \log_{10} 101^{101}\). Don't write in the answer, let me check first.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok

Parth (parthkohli):

You can do something else while I check. Thanks :-)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok

Parth (parthkohli):

203.

Parth (parthkohli):

And so I was correct :-)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

why add 1?

Parth (parthkohli):

Because the number of digits in \(100\) is not \(\log_{10} 100\), but it's \(1+\log_{10}100\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok thanks

OpenStudy (anonymous):

can it be used for counting digits in any expansion?

Parth (parthkohli):

Expansion? You mean number base?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

like this type of question

Parth (parthkohli):

Yes.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok thanks
