1) 0.55 equlas to 55/100 and then 55/100 equals to 11/20 because you have to simplify it.
2) 2.85 equlas to 2 17/20. The reason why is because 285/100 equals 57/20 and then when you simplify that your answer would be 2 17/20.
3) 1.25 equals 125/100 and then convert that in to 1 25/100.
Hope this helps:)
