1. Problem Description

We are asked to evaluate the expression 3400+3401+34023400\frac{3^{400} + 3^{401} + 3^{402}}{3^{400}}.

2. Solution Steps

We can rewrite the numerator by factoring out 34003^{400}.
3400+3401+3402=3400+340031+3400323^{400} + 3^{401} + 3^{402} = 3^{400} + 3^{400} \cdot 3^1 + 3^{400} \cdot 3^2.
Factoring out 34003^{400}, we get:
3400(1+31+32)=3400(1+3+9)=3400(13)3^{400}(1 + 3^1 + 3^2) = 3^{400}(1 + 3 + 9) = 3^{400}(13).
Now we can rewrite the original expression:
3400+3401+34023400=3400(13)3400\frac{3^{400} + 3^{401} + 3^{402}}{3^{400}} = \frac{3^{400}(13)}{3^{400}}.
We can cancel the 34003^{400} term from the numerator and denominator:
3400(13)3400=13\frac{3^{400}(13)}{3^{400}} = 13.
