2/100 is less than 5/100. When in doubt multiply both by the greatest decimal place. Ex. these both happened to be hundredths. If you had .2 and .05 you would multiply both by 100 leaving 20/100 and 5/100. I hope this makes sense.

Which is greater .050 or .005?
The 1st decimal number is the greater
What is greater 0.05 or 0.01?
In terms of numerical value, 0.05 is greater than 0.01. This is because the digit 5 in 0.05 is in the hundredths place, while the digit 1 in 0.01 is in the hundredths place. In decimal numbers, the value of digits to the right of the decimal point decreases as you move from left to right, so a higher digit in the same place indicates a larger value.
