Answer 2

Answer:

5.55 is a number which is 100 times smaller than 555 .

Step-by-step explanation:

Here given number is 555.

We want to find a number which is hundred times smaller than 555.

Now question is what is the meaning of hundred times smaller ?

Let x be a number.

a number 100 times smaller than x means

$= x \times \frac{1}{100} = \frac{x}{100}$

For example a number 100 times smaller than 2 means

$\frac{2}{100} = 0.02$

And a number 100 times smaller than 5 means

$= \frac{5}{100} = 0.05$

Here given number is 555.

So,a number 100 times smaller than 555 means

$= 555 \times \frac{1}{100} \\ = \frac{555}{100} \\ = 5.55$
