Default DEcimal Input

I use Excel for a long time, but something strange happen to me today.
It is using decimal numbers. The number introduced is different from what I
tape.
When I tape 100 it appears in that cell 1. If I tape 53, for example, it
appears 0.53.
What can the problem be? Is it possible to solve?

Menu ToolsOptions and go to the Edit tab.

See if the Fixed Decimal box is checked, if so uncheck it.
