Fun which is larger: (ninth root of 9!) or (tenth root of 10!)?

I'm bored.

    (9!)^(1/9) and (10!)^(1/10)

    Raise them both to the 90th power

    (9!)^10 and (10!)^9

    (9!)^10 =.= (10 * 9!)^9

    (9!)^10 =.= 10^9 * (9!)^9

    9! =.= 10^9

    We can tell, intuitively, that 9! < 10^9. Therefore, (9!)^(1/9) < (10!)^(1/10)

    ninth root of 9! = 4.14716627...

    tenth root of 10! = 4.52872868...

    ∴ninth root of 9! < tenth root of 10!

    9^(1/9) > 10^(1/10)
