Simplify using exponent laws: (10^2)^3.
Note
A power raised to another power means multiply the exponents: 2 × 3 = 6. Keep the same base. For a power raised to a power, multiply the exponents because the base is being repeated in groups. The base itself does not change. Do not add or multiply the bases unless a rule specifically allows it. The correct answer is 10^6, which matches the calculation or reasoning shown.
