  • Step 1: Identify that 100=102 100 = 10^2 . This means we must move the decimal point in 2.001 2.001 two places to the right.
  • Step 2: Take the number 2.001 2.001 and move the decimal point two places right:
    - Start: 2.001 2.001
  • - After moving the first place: 20.01 20.01 (Decimal point now between 0 and 0)
    - After moving the second place: 200.1 200.1 (Decimal point now after the digit 1).

Thus, the product of 2.001×100 2.001 \times 100 is 200.1 200.1 .

Therefore, the final answer is 200.1 200.1 , which corresponds to choice 2.
