8 is a whole number, so this will be the whole number part of our mixed number.

0.25 is a decimal, where 25 is in the HUNDREDths place, so we write 25 as a fraction over 100.

[tex]\sf\dfrac{25}{100}[/tex]

Simplify by dividing 25 to the numerator and denominator.

[tex]\sf25\div25=1[/tex]
[tex]\sf100\div25=4[/tex]

So our fraction is [tex]\sf8\dfrac{1}{4}[/tex]

0.55 is a decimal, where 55 is in the HUNDREDths place, so we write 55 as a fraction over 100.

[tex]\sf\dfrac{55}{100}[/tex]

Simplify by dividing 5 to the numerator and denominator.

[tex]\sf55\div5=11[/tex]
[tex]\sf100\div5=20[/tex]

So our fraction is [tex]\sf\dfrac{11}{20}[/tex]

[tex]\sf\dfrac{5}{8}[/tex]

To convert this to a decimal, just divide 5 / 8

[tex]\sf5\div8=0.625[/tex]
8.25=8 1/4 0.55=55/100=11/20 5/8=0.625(divide 5/8)
