how many crew do you need on a 100 seater aircraft? (e.g. jetblue's embraer 190) on average is about 50 pax to 1 crew mamber, so would you need 2 or 3 crew for exactly 100 seats?

Two (in the UK).
The requirement is one crew member per 50 seats or part thereof.
So, 50 seats = 1 crew minimum; 51 seats = 2 crew minimum; 100 = 2 crew; 101 seats = 3 crew; etc.
Note it is seats fitted, not pax carried that determines the minimum crewing levels.
