Given the problem:
Give three examples of a power of 10. Explain why one of your examples is a power of 10.

Alright so 3 examples of a power of 10 and explain one of the examples why.

So let me start by explaining what a power of 10 is. A power of 10 is anything with a base 10 and an exponent.
So three examples are:
10^1=10
10^2=100
10^3=1,000
As you can see, they all have a base of 10 and an exponent.
Now the second question: why. Why? I pretty much explained it already when I explained to you what a power of 10 is. Just pick like any one of them and explain that a power of 10 is anything with a base of 10 and an exponent.
I’ll attach a image that will also probably help you understand better.
Hope this helped!
