31/90 = .3444444
41/110 = .372727272
How many hundredths are in between them?
Well, 35/100, 36/100, and 37/100...
35 + 36 + 37 = 108

31%2F90+%3C+x%2F100+%3C+41%2F110.............all terms multiply by 100
%28100%2A31%29%2F90+%3C+100x%2F+100%3C+%28100%2A41%29%2F110
%2810%2A31%29%2F9+%3C+x%3C+%2810%2A41%29%2F11
310%2F9%3Cx%3C410%2F11
34%3C+x+%3C+37
between 34 and 37 (including37) we have :
35,36 and 37 and their sum is
35%2B36%2B37=108

The answer is 108. How?
31%2F90+%3C+x%2F100+%3C+41%2F110

%283410%2F9900%29+%3C+%2899x%2F9900%29+%3C+%283690%2F9900%29 ------------ Multiplying by LCD,
It then becomes: 3410+%3C+99x+%3C+3690
%283410%2F99%29+%3C+%2899x%2F99%29+%3C+%283690%2F99%29 --------- Dividing by 99
34.444+%3C+x+%3C+37.27273
Integers are therefore: highlight_green%2835+%2B+36+%2B+37+=+108%29
