JEE MAIN - Mathematics (2002 - No. 45)
The positive integer just greater than $${\left( {1 + 0.0001} \right)^{10000}}$$ is
4
5
2
3
Explanation
$${\left( {1 + 0.0001} \right)^{10000}}$$ = $${\left( {1 + {1 \over {{{10}^4}}}} \right)^{10000}}$$
= 1 + 10000$${ \times {1 \over {{{10}^4}}}}$$ + $${{10000\left( {9999} \right)} \over {2!}} \times {\left( {{1 \over {{{10}^4}}}} \right)^2}$$+......$$\infty $$
< 1 + 1 + $${1 \over {2!}}$$ + $${1 \over {3!}}$$ + ...... $$\infty $$ = e = 2.71828 < 3
= 1 + 10000$${ \times {1 \over {{{10}^4}}}}$$ + $${{10000\left( {9999} \right)} \over {2!}} \times {\left( {{1 \over {{{10}^4}}}} \right)^2}$$+......$$\infty $$
< 1 + 1 + $${1 \over {2!}}$$ + $${1 \over {3!}}$$ + ...... $$\infty $$ = e = 2.71828 < 3
