If "100 to 240 V" is stated on the rating plate of a small electrical appliance, such as an electric razor or a plug-in power supply for something else, that means it is designed to operate on any voltage between 100 Volts and 240 volts.
* So the appliance will work if it is plugged into a 120 Volt household AC power supply in the US, Canada or elsewhere in the world which uses a similar supply
and
* it will also work on a 230 Volt household AC power supply in the UK or any other country in Europe or elsewhere in the world which uses a similar supply.

How to you use a US projector in the UK?
The voltage is 240 v in the UK and 120 v in the US, so you can look at the back plate to see if the projector can be adjusted for the different voltage, but if that can't be done you need a 240/120 v transformer and it has to be one that can take the required amount of power (watts).
