Solution

The correct option is D 0.12
Given that Sam covered 12 km of his 100 km road trip, he has covered (12100)th part of his 100 km road trip.

In the fraction, the denominator is a power of 10 and there are two zeroes after one in it, the decimal point in numerator would be shifted by two units to the left.
12100=0.12
Sam has covered 0.12 part of his road trip.
