A

3

B

4

C

5

D

2

Answer

2

Explanation

Solution

The given expression on expansion gives

1 + 1000 × 10−4 + 1000×9992108+1000C31012\frac{1000 \times 999}{2}10^{- 8} +^{1000}C_{3}10^{- 12} + …….

< 1 + 110+1100+11000+\frac{1}{10} + \frac{1}{100} + \frac{1}{1000} + \cdots = 11110=109\frac{1}{1 - \frac{1}{10}} = \frac{10}{9}

so that the integer just greater than the given expression must be 2
