The meridian of 100°W crosses North Dakota, South Dakota,
Nebraska, Kansas, Oklahoma, and Texas.
The longitude at the center of Boise is roughly 116.2°W ...
about 810 miles west of that meridian.
Of course, since the Earth is a sphere (ball-shaped), you can also reach
Boise by traveling east from the 100°W meridian. But in that direction,
it's a 17,190-mile trip.
The capital is Boise.
It is west of 100 degrees W longitude. (All of Idaho is west of 111° W longitude.)

Longitude is measured in degrees east or west.
Longitude is the angular measurement in degrees east or west of the Prime Meridian. The Prime Meridian is at zero degrees; going east, your longitude is in degrees and minutes east, while going west your longitude is measured in degrees and minutes west. A circle is 360 degrees, so the maximum longitude is 180 degrees either way. At the 180 degree line (called the "anti-meridian") the measurement is neither east nor west.
