2. Solution Steps

Let the missing number be xx. Then the equation is:
x÷100=42.54 x \div 100 = 42.54
To find xx, we multiply both sides of the equation by 100:
x÷100×100=42.54×100 x \div 100 \times 100 = 42.54 \times 100
x=42.54×100 x = 42.54 \times 100
To multiply 42.54 by 100, we move the decimal point two places to the right.
x=4254 x = 4254

3. Final Answer

4254
