Mathematics is not for the weak.
But very easy to understand once you grab the basics.
Most maths teachers made it more difficult for people to learn thats why many people find maths difficult to understand

I know many people will run away from this thread... Maths is actually my best subject, even though some people call it their biggest nightmare.😊

Please share the steps for displaying this the way it is. I imagine you use latex.

Yeah, I used latex with the Verbtex app, a latex editor for Android (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=verbosus.verbtex). This is the latex source file:

\documentclass{article}
% Allow the usage of UTF-8 characters
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
% Allow the usage of graphics (.png, .jpg)
\usepackage{graphicx}

\newcommand{\num}{8\times 10^{67}}

% Start the document
\begin{document}

% Create a new 1st level heading
\section*{}

The main idea is to observe that $\num$ is a large number and then use limit. It is known that $\lim\limits_{x\to \infty} \left(1-\frac{1}{x}\right)^x = \frac{1}{e}$. Hence, the expression $1 - \left(1-\frac{1}{\num}\right)^{\num} \approx 1-\frac{1}{e} \approx 0.632$.

Note that commonly available calculators cannot accurately evaluate the given expression. Due to their limited numerical precision, they evaluate $\frac{1}{\num}$ as zero, thus incorrectly giving the final answer as 0.

To correctly evaluate the expression numerically, one may use MATLAB, Octave, or any other computational software that supports variable-precision arithmetic. The one-line code in MATLAB or Octave is: \\
\\
vpa(1 - (1-1/sym(8e67))\^{}sym(8e67), 64)
\\

The second argument (\textbf{64}) passed to the \textbf{vpa} function is the number of significant digits in the final answer. Setting it too low will result in inaccurate evaluation.

From the way I asked the question, I’m sure you realize I know what I’m talking about. I know the application of logarithms and exponential. It’s just the way education is being taught in Nigeria. People solve different mathematical equations without knowing the applications
Where in the world is application of logarithms taught
You guys should calm down with this oversabi
It's even obvious you don't understand what logarithms are to be asking for its application
It's just like asking for the application of Ztable or sin table

The answer is approximately 1-1/e = 0.632. I will upload the workings when I get to my laptop.

Edit:
See the attached image for the evaluation
you took it too far.

Did you later went for your PhD? What course did you study in school? Are you lecturing somewhere or on scholarship?

No mathematics is an accident, they all have different applications

Mathematiciansin the house, Come in and solve this maths.

If it's an objective question, I won't even bother solving it, especially if one of the options is Less than 1.

If no option is Less than 1, and there is "None of the above", that I will take.
