Answer 1

Answer:

  The lowest terms equivalent to - 1.25  =  - $\frac{5}{4}$

Step-by-step explanation:

- 1.25 = - $1\frac{25}{100}$

         = - ( 1 × 100 +25) ÷ 100

         =  -( $\frac{125}{100}$ ) × ($\frac{5}{5}$

        =  - $\frac{25}{20}$

        =  - ($\frac{25}{20}$) × ($\frac{5}{5}$

        =  - $\frac{5}{4}$
