For this case what we must do is use a base as a number and an exponent.
We must write an expression of the form:
\(b ^ a
\)
Where,
b: base
a: exponent
We then have the following number:
\(100000
\)
We can write the number as:
\(100000 = 10 * 10 * 10 * 10 * 10
\)
By definition we have:
In the multiplication, if we have the same base, the exponents are added:
\(100000 = 10 ^ {(1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1)}
100000 = 10 ^ 5
\)
Answer:
A number that should have used as the exponent is:
5
