Hence
1

times can be seen as one tenth of one tenth which is one hundredth or
1
100
or 0.01
To summarise:
0.1 ´ 0.1 =
1
10
1
10
times = one tenth of one tenth = one hundredth
=
1
100
= 0.01
So 0.1 ´ 0.1 = 0.01
Question: What is 0.1 ´ 0.1?
The answer is 0.01 as you are multiplying
1

by
which means
1

´ .
This has value
1
100
or 0.01 as a decimal.
As 1´1 = 1
then by comparison
0.1´ 0.1 = 0.1
