Answer:

exponent 3 will make this equation true

Explanation:

Let 10¹ = 10

10² = 100

10³ = 1000

10ⁿ = 10000......0(n times)

Therefore 10³ = 1000

the resulting number consists of multiple of zeros on the right side of 1,

if the power is n, then 10ⁿ = 1000000.....0(n times)

Therefore the correct answer is 3, that means exponent 3 will make the equation true.
