-8 17/20, because the number before the decimal, is the whole number. And the numbers after, you would have to do 85/100, since there are two numbers behind the decimal, you would have to put 100 as the denominator. Then simply

- 8.85

-8 85/100 because of the two numbers after the decimal.

Reduce -8 85/100 ( divide by 5 for the numerator and denominator)

85/5=17

100/5=20

Answer: -8 17/20
