Answer:

[tex] M = log 100 [/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula to find the magnitude of an earthquake is given as:

[tex] M = log[\frac{I}{S}] [/tex]

Where,

M = magnitude of the earthquake

I = intensity of the earthquake

S = intensity of a standard earthquake.

In this case, we are told the intensity of the earthquake is 100 times that of a standard earthquake.

Thus, I = 100*S

The equation that represents the magnitude of this earthquake :

[tex] M = log[\frac{100*S}{S}] [/tex]

[tex] M = log[100] [/tex]
