Answer:

10 N / cm^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The Formiula is P = F / A

P = presure

F = Force in Newtons

A = area.

The answer is the smaller the area the larger the pressure.

The smallest area you have given us is 10 cm^2

The Pressure = 100N / 10 cm^2

Pressure = 10 N/cm^2

Note: the units are not exactly standard units, but I've given the answer the way the question offers the units.
