確切的數字一百
這一族用的是 hundred 最字面的意思——真的就是 100 這個數量，不誇張、不比喻。包含當數字用，以及一張面額一百的鈔票。

可以想成「一百」這個整整齊齊的數字：十個十湊成一堆，是個又圓又滿的數量。它給人的感覺不只是個冷冰冰的數字，而是「一大堆、夠多了、滿了」的那種飽足感。後面其他用法，幾乎都是從這個「滿滿一百」的畫面延伸出去的——有時是真的數到一百，有時只是借它來表達「多」或「完整」。Four branches
借一百來說「很多」
這一族不再是精確的 100，而是借「一百」給人的「好大一堆」感覺，用來誇張地表示數量很多。我們中文說「好幾百個」也是同一招——不是真的去數，只是借大數字表達「多到數不清」。
hundreds (a very large number) · number · A2
A very large number of things or people (not an exact count).
好幾百 / 很多
百分之百＝完整、滿格
這一族集中在 a hundred percent 這個說法上。百分之百本來是「整整一百份、一份不缺」，所以引申成「完完全全、滿到頂」。從這裡又分出兩個方向：用在「程度上滿格」，以及用在「人的狀態滿格」。
a hundred percent (completely, totally) · number · A2
In the phrase 'a hundred percent': completely; totally.
百分之百 / 完全地
拿出百分之百的力氣
這一族也建立在「百分之百＝全部」上，但方向是「付出」：give a hundred percent 就是把自己全部的力氣都掏出來，一點都不留。和上一族不同的是，這裡強調的是「投入到滿」，而不是「完成到滿」。
give a hundred percent · number · A2
In the phrase 'give a hundred percent': to try as hard as you possibly can.
全力以赴
