Answer:You can see the bands of any size of DNA in whatsoever %age of agarose gel you will use. But optimum resolution can only be achieved by using the optimum %age of agarose. I am sharing a table of recommended % agarose and optimum resolution of linear dna with you for your convenience... (source: promega)
0.5% 1,000 - 30,000 bp
0.7% 800 - 12,000 bp
1.0% 500 - 10,000 bp
1.2% 400 - 7,000 bp
1.5% 200 - 3,000 bp
1.8% 100 - 2,000 bp
2.0% 50 - 2,000 bp
You should always pick the gel percentage according to the smallest linear dna fragment for better resolution... and in your case it is 100 bp... so 1.5 - 1.8% agarose gel would suffice your need.
All the best
