22/8 because it would be equivalent to 11/4. If you multiply 11/4 by 2 you would get 22/8.

Yes, but the answer I think the question is asking for is 5/4, not 1 1/4 since a fraction greater than one is usually that the numerator is greater than the denominator or known as a improper fraction. I'm not sure if my answer is correct but I think it is.
