2^600 is greater :wink:

2^600=2^(6*100)=64^100

6^200=6^(2*100)=36^100

2^600

6 = roughly 2^2.5
so 2.5 * 200 = 500

500 < 600

2^600 as compared to 2^200*3^200

compare

2^400,3^200,

(2^4)^100 to (3^2)^100

16^100 to 9^100 surely 16^100 is bigger

I think more easier comparison will be

2^600 = (2^3)^200 = 8^200 > 6^200
