The following problem is from both the 2000 AMC 12 #2 and 2000 AMC 10 #2, so both problems redirect to this page.

Problem

$2000(2000^{2000}) = ?$

$\textbf{(A)} \ 2000^{2001}  \qquad \textbf{(B)} \ 4000^{2000}  \qquad \textbf{(C)} \ 2000^{4000}  \qquad \textbf{(D)} \ 4,000,000^{2000}  \qquad \textbf{(E)} \ 2000^{4,000,000}$

Solution

$2000(2000^{2000}) = (2000^{1})(2000^{2000}) = 2000^{2000+1} = 2000^{2001} \Rightarrow \boxed{\textbf{(A) } 2000^{2001}}$
