Answer: 100 N

Explanation: Taking into account the second Newton Law the total force applied to any system is equal to the mass *acceleration.In this case the crate moves at constant speed so the accelaration is zero. In order to satisfy this fact, the friction force must be equal the applied force of 100 N .
