Write the following fraction as a decimal:

$\frac{1}{100}=$

00:00 Convert to decimal fraction

00:03 In a decimal fraction, we take the numerator as a number

00:06 According to the denominator, we move the decimal point

00:11 When the denominator equals 100, move the decimal point twice to the left

00:18 And this is the solution to the question

Let's write the simple fraction as a decimal fraction

$1.0$

Since the fraction divides by 100, we move the decimal point once to the left and get:

$.010$
