Identify the greater number in the following : 2⁶ or 6²

Solution:

Given, the numbers are 2⁶ and 6²

We have to find a greater number.

Considering 2⁶,

2⁶ = 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2

= 4 × 4 × 4

= 16 × 4

= 64

Considering 6²,

6² = 6 × 6

= 36

We observe that 64 is greater than 36.

Therefore, 64 > 36
