4^11 can also be rewritten as (2^2)^11, then 2^22 or (2^21)*2

(5^21)x(2^21)x2=2* (5x2)^21=2*10^21, hence n=21

What is GMC?

I used the official guide tracker to keep track of my error of sentence correction in OG 12th edition. I find out that I made a lot of mistakes in the GMC category. What is GMC stands for? Could anyone help? Thanks.
