Answer:

-2.25

Step-by-step explanation:

If you want to convert -2[tex]1/4[/tex] to a decimal you will want to split the fraction up to make it easier to work with.

[tex]-2 \frac{1}{4} = -2 + \frac{1}{4}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex] is the same 1 divided by 4

So you will do

−2+(1÷4)

1 divide by 4 is 0.25 so you will do

-2+0.25 = -2.25
