It is a simple question on decimal conversion. Firstly, we have to learn fractions and decimals. A fraction represents a part from the whole. It has two parts, numerator (number on the top) here, 100 represents how many parts out of the whole. The denominator (number below) shows how many parts make the whole, here it is 100. A decimal is a way to represent the number that is not whole, using a (.) or a decimal point to separate the whole part from the fraction part. The numbers to the left of the decimal point represent the whole, and those to the right represent the fractional part.

$100/100 as a decimal$

Answer

100/100 in decimals can be written as 1. It is a terminating decimal, showing it ends and does not repeat.

Explanation

To get 100/100 in decimal, we will use the division method. Here, 100 is equal to 100, so we will divide the numerator by the denominator, which will give us 1. Let's see the step-by-step breakdown of the process:

Step 1: Identify the numerator and denominator because the numerator (100) will be taken as the dividend and the denominator (100) will be taken as the divisor.

Step 2: As 100 is equal to 100, divide 100 by 100, which gives 1.

Step 3: Since the division results in a whole number, there is no fractional part, and the result is a terminating decimal.

The answer for 100/100 as a decimal will be 1.
