A = 1 + 2 + 22 + 23 + ... + 22003
2A = 2 + 22 + 23 + 24 + ... + 22004
2A - A = (2 + 22 + 23 + 24 + ... + 22004) - (1 + 2 + 22 + 23 + ... + 22003)
A = 22004 - 1 = B
Ta có: \(A=1+2+2^2+2^3+...+2^{2003}\)
\(\Rightarrow2A=2+2^2+2^3+2^4+...+2^{2004}\)
\(\Rightarrow2A-A=\left(2+2^2+2^3+2^4+...+2^{2004}\right)-\left(1+2+2^2+2^3+...+2^{2003}\right)\)
\(\Rightarrow A=2^{2004}-1\)
Mà \(B=2^{2004}-1\)
\(\Rightarrow B=A\) hay A = B
Vậy A = B
