D: 2 43/100 and the reason whhy this is the correct answer is because we take the .43 and convert it into a fraction, giving us 43/100, but we cannot forget the 2, and so that is our answer, 2 43/100.

Hope this helped!

First lets change 2.43 to a fraction.

lets split the whole number into its whole number component and decimal component.

for the decimal component, 0.43 is equal as 43/100.

combine the whole number component with the fraction

Answer: 2 43/100 so answer is D) or the fourth option.
