To simplify the square root of 0.01, follow these steps:

Express 0.01 as a fraction:
0.01 can be written as 1/100.

Apply the square root:
The square root of a fraction is the square root of the numerator divided by the square root of the denominator. So,
√(0.01) = √(1/100).

Simplify the square roots:
√1 = 1 and √100 = 10.

Final answer:
Therefore, √(0.01) = 1/10 or 0.1.

So, the square root of 0.01 simplifies to 0.1.
