Correct Answer: A
You needn’t have withdrawal pains from your calculator because of this one. Solving it is truly much easier than it looks. Multiply .10 × 10 to get 1. You know that 1 × 100 = 100, which is certainly greater than 1. That’s all you have to do. If you chose C, you got careless and were swayed by the hypnotic power of the columns. Don’t let the Cs mesmerize (hypnotize) you; double-check them any time you encounter them. Correct Answer: A.
