The numbers 220242^{2024} and 520245^{2024} are expanded and their digits are written out consecutively on one page. The total number of digits written on the page is

Correct Option: 2

Even without knowing the values of the log, you can still solve it (take base as 10):
log22024+log52024\log 2^{2024} + \log 5^{2024} \newline =2024log2+2024log5= 2024 \log 2 + 2024 \log 5 \newline =2024(log2+log5)= 2024 (\log 2 + \log 5) \newline =2024[log(2×5)]= 2024 [\log (2 \times 5)] \newline =2024(log10)= 2024 (\log 10) \newline =2024×1= 2024 \times 1 \newline The number of digits is always one more than the resultant value, i.e. 20252025 digits, and no other option is close to this.
