The answer is: "8/25" ; or write as: "4/25" .
__________________________________________________
Step-by-step explanation:
____________________________________________
Given: 2/100 + 3/10 = _?__ ??
____________________________________________
Note: 3/10 = ? / 100 ;
_____________________________________
10 * 10 = 100 ;

so: 3/10 = (3*10) / (10*10) = 30/100 ;
_____________________________________
So; 2/100 + 3/10 = 2/100 + 30/100 = 32/100 ;
________________________________________
We have: "32/100" ; which can be written in "decimal form" ;
_________________________________________
"32/100" = 32 ÷ 100 = 0.32 ;
_________________________________________
Or, "32/100" can be simplified further, in "fraction form" ;
_________________________________________
"32/100" = (32÷8) / (100÷8) = 4/25 ;
______________________________________________
The answer: "0.25" ; or; "4/25" .
