Decompose fractions with denominators of 100

Problem

Use the following number line to complete the equation.
A number line labeled zero-tenths to three-tenths, with tick marks at zero-tenths, one-tenth, two-tenths, and three-tenths labeled and emphasized. Tick marks are at every hundredth unit. A pink arrow starting at zero-tenths moves right along the number line pointing to the two-tenths tick mark. A green arrow starting at the two-tenths tick mark moves right along the number line pointing to a dot on the sixth tick mark between two-tenths and three-tenths labeled twenty-six hundredths.
26100=p10+6100
p=
