Answer:

50

Explanation:

Let "x" represent the number that makes them equal. No wet up a fraction;


(5)/(10)=(x)/(100)

Step 1: Switch sides


(x)/(100)=(5)/(10)

Step 2: Multiply both sides by 100


(x)/(100)\cdot \:100=(5)/(10)\cdot \:100

Simplify


x=50

Therefore, 50 is the number that will make the fractions equal.
