Answer:

Suzi did

Step-by-step explanation:

Yes they do have 10^2 power on your calculator.

Look for the ^ key or Exp or y^x or x^y. Most scientific calculators have one of those.

Suzi did it correctly. 0.721 * 100 is a decimal move two places to the right. That would bring the decimal between the 2 and the 1.
