How does it work?

The principle behind finding a fraction of a number, such as 7/7 of 100, is rooted in the method of cross-multiplication.

Consider the following proportion: $\frac{7}{7}=\frac{x}{100}$ (where x represents 7/7 of 100)

1. Using the cross-multiplication method, multiply both numerators by their opposite denominators: $7\times 100=7x$
2. Which gives: $700=7x$
3. Divide both sides by 7 to isolate x: $\frac{700}{7}=\frac{7x}{7}$
4. Which gives the result: $\frac{700}{7}=x$ (or $\frac{100}{1}=x$)

Thus, 7/7 of 100 is equal to 100/1 (or 100 in its decimal form).
