The following expression ![\[\sum_{k=1}^{60} {60 \choose k}+\sum_{k=1}^{59} {59 \choose k}+\sum_{k=1}^{58} {58 \choose k}+\sum_{k=1}^{57} {57 \choose k}+\sum_{k=1}^{56} {56 \choose k}+\sum_{k=1}^{55} {55 \choose k}+\sum_{k=1}^{54} {54 \choose k}+...+\sum_{k=1}^{3} {3 \choose k}-2^{10}\]](http://latex.artofproblemsolving.com/f/3/e/f3ec40504a0dd4366dbbd4b910eb14ab633ae037.png)
can be expressed as 
which both 
and 
are relatively prime positive integers. Find 
.
Solution
![\[\sum_{k=0}^{60} {60 \choose k}\]](http://latex.artofproblemsolving.com/c/6/2/c62fc86f29e4ce7b68ca2c65d47854fd0603c4cc.png)
can be expressed as 
, and 
is equal to
