(1+x)^n =Σ_(r=0) ^n  a_r x^r  =Σ_(r=0) ^n  C_n ^r  x^r  ⇒a_r =C_n ^r   b_r =1+(a_r /a_(r−1) ) =1+(C_n ^r /C_n ^(r−1) ) =1+(((n!)/(r!(n−r)!))/((n!)/((r−1)!(n−r+1)!)))  =1+(((r−1)!(n−r+1)!)/(r!(n−r)!)) =1+((n−r+1)/r)  =((r+n−r+1)/r) =((n+1)/r) ⇒Π_(r=1) ^n  b_r   =Π_(r=1) ^n ((n+1)/r) =(n+1)^n Π_(r=1) ^n  (1/r)  =(n+1)^n (1×(1/2)×....×(1/n)) =(((n+1)^n )/(n!))=(((101)^(100) )/(100!)) ⇒  n=100.and the correct answer is b.
