ehh no

KingPizza · Answer

okay well the first multiple of 7 is 7, so just count 7 and you get 14, and so on with every number until you reach the last multiple of 7 less than 100

KingPizza · Answer

so what answer did you come up with?

kristiannnnnt · Answer

7/50

KingPizza · Answer

yes, 13/100 is close but there are 14 multiple of 7 between 1 and 100, so it would be 14/100 which reduces to 7'/50
