Answer : I = 8.33 A

Explanation :

It is given that,

Power rating of the toaster, P = 1000 watts

Household voltage, V = 120 volts

We know the relation between power, voltage and the current is :

$P=V\times I$

$I=\dfrac{P}{V}$

$I=\dfrac{1000\ W}{120\ V}$

$I = 8.33\ A$

8.33 A of current runs through the toaster.

Hence, this is the required solution.
