To convert the decimal number into its binary equivalent, we separate the integer part and the fractional part:
1. **Integer Part ():**
Dividing by 2 repeatedly:

* with a remainder of
* with a remainder of
* with a remainder of
Reading the remainders from bottom to top gives .

2. **Fractional Part ():**
Multiplying by 2 repeatedly and noting down the integer components:

* (Integer part is )
* (Integer part is )
* (Integer part is )
Reading the integer parts from top to bottom gives .

Combining both components results in , which is represented in the options with a hyphen as 100-101.
