Answer:

no, because 2/10 is actually bigger than 2/100

Explanation:

because if you think about a fraction as a part of a circle, and each of the denominators standed for one piece of the circle, then there would be way more pieces on the 100 circle and they would be smaller, thus, making 2 of them worth less than 2 of the circle with only 10 pieces.
