Correct Answer: (3)
Solution : The sentence can be improved using the third option.
This is the correct choice, as "exceed" itself is sufficient to convey the idea that the article should not go beyond a hundred words. "Exceed beyond" and "exceed than" are not grammatically correct.
Therefore, the correct sentence is: "The article should not exceed a hundred words."
