Answer 1

Answer:

55.25 °F

Explanation:

We need to turn the number $55(\frac{1}{4})$ into a decimal number with two decimal places. The expression is equivalent to :

$55(\frac{1}{4})=55+\frac{1}{4}$ (I)

We know that $\frac{1}{4}=0.25$ ⇒ If we replace this decimal number in the expression (I) ⇒

$55+\frac{1}{4}=55+0.25=55.25$

We find out that $55(\frac{1}{4})$ °F is equivalent to 55.25 °F in the decimal form.
