To Scroll Page To Top Using jQuery It Takes Only Three Steps:-

Make a HTML file and define markup
Make a js file and define scripting
Make a CSS file and define styling

Step 1. Make a HTML file and define markup

We make a HTML file and save it with a name scroll.html

<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript" src="jquery.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="scroll_script.js"></script>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="scroll_style.css">
</head>
<body>
<div id="wrapper">
 <p>
  This is some sample content
 </p>
 <br>
 <p>
  This is some sample content
 </p>
 <br>
 <input type="button" value="Scroll Top" id="scrollToTop" onclick="scrolltop();">
</div>

</body>
</html>

In this step we create some sample content and create a button which is used to scroll the page whenever user clicks on that.

Step 2. Make a js file and define scripting

We make a js file and save it with a name scroll_script.js

$(document).ready(function(){
 $(window).scroll(function(){
 if ($(window).scrollTop() > 100) {
  $('#scrollToTop').fadeIn();
 } else {
  $('#scrollToTop').fadeOut();
 }
 });
});

function scrolltop()
{
 $('html, body').animate({scrollTop : 0},500);
}

In this step we use document.ready function to show and hide the button with jQuery fade effect when the difference between scrollbar and window is greater than 100 and then we create scrolltop function which is used to scroll the page to top in this function we use jQuery animate function to scroll.
