Explain why(CH3)3C+ has more number of hyper conjugation structures

Dear student,,Carbocations can be stabilize by hyperconjugation, +I effect or +M/+R effect. CH3 group act as +I group and also shows hyperconjugation. As the no. of CH3 group increases in any carbocation stability of carbocation increases. No. of hyperconjugating structures = (No. of alpha H + 1) In (CH3)3C+ the no. of alpha H are 9 so total hyper-conjugating structures will be 10.
