Write R = N/D, with N = 30^65 - 29^65 and D = 30^64 + 29^64. Then
N = (30 - 29) * sum{i=0,...,64}(30^i * 29^(64-i))
= 30^64 + 29^64 + sum{i=1,...,63}(30^i * 29^(64-i)) > D.
Hence: R > 1.

Set it up a different way :
say R=( (A+1)^65 - A^65) / ((A+1)^64 + A^64)
where A=29.
You know what the expansions look like for the 64th and 65th powers from Pascal's Triangle and you don't want to do that much work so just look at the first few powers to see if you can find a general pattern with increasing power.
