I am located in the United States and have a light fixture in my kitchen w/ the following parameters:
250V, 100W
model: K512GU
not sure what this part is: 2/250
Can I use this 60W bulb in this fixture: http://a.co/eMM1v4R? More generally, do I have to use a 250V, 100W bulb, or can the voltage on the bulb differ, or can the wattage differ, or can both differ?
Pictures of the existing bulbs (which stopped working) and the info in the light fixture are attached.

The numbers you have found are the maximum ratings of the socket.
The wattage of the bulb, if incandescent, must not exceed 100 W but may be less.
The voltage of the bulb must match the voltage supplied by the electric service, which is almost certainly whichever of either 120 or 240 volts is standard for your country. The voltage rating of the socket is irrelevant. Check the old bulb for a voltage marking.
