Solution Steps

Step 1: Understand the problem

We are given the fraction \(\frac{4}{25}\) and asked to find the missing numerator in the equivalent fraction \(\frac{?}{100}\).

Step 2: Set up the equation

To find the missing numerator, set up the equation: \[ \frac{4}{25} = \frac{x}{100} \] where \(x\) is the missing numerator.

Step 3: Solve for \(x\)

Cross-multiply to solve for \(x\): \[ 4 \times 100 = 25 \times x \] \[ 400 = 25x \] \[ x = \frac{400}{25} \] \[ x = 16 \]

Final Answer

\(\boxed{x = 16}\)
