QUESTION #8100
Question 1
Compare the two quantities below.
Column A: $9^7$
Column B: $10{,}000{,}000$
Correct Answer Explanation
Note that $10{,}000{,}000 = 10^7$.
Comparing $9^7$ vs $10^7$: since the base $9 < 10$ and both exponents are equal and positive, we have $9^7 < 10^7$.
Therefore Column B ($10^7$) is greater than Column A ($9^7$).
