    Very good Herr liebe Schiller!

    Geringe Korrekturen.

    We are going to a shopping center. There are fifty-five different shops. The garage has three floors. All floors have spaces to parking for more than one hundred and sixteen cars. We must pay 1 Euro for the parking place for the first hour, the next 2 hours fifteen cent for each commenced (additional?) hour. More than fifty-five thousand people live in the city. (Sounds more natural).

    Good job!

    When writing, we usually spell out numbers 1 to 10 and use numerals for everything over ten except when beginning a sentence or writing about money.

    We are going into a shopping center. There are 55 different shops. The garage has three floors. All floors (Every floor) has space for more than 116 cars. We must pay for the parking place. For the first hour the rate is 1 Euro, and then 0.15 for each additional hour. Fifty-five thousand people live in the city.

    We are going to the shopping center.  There are fifty-five different shops in this shopping center.  The garage has three floors and every floor has more than one hundred sixteen car parking spaces.  (or one hundred sixteen car parks) We must pay for the parking space. For the first hour the rate is 1 Euro, and then fifteen cents for each additional hour. There are approximately fifty-five thousand people live in the city.

    Please also see the comments made by the other colleagues.  Their comments are also correct.

    Sorry, I have to make a correction in this English Grammar.

    "There are more than fifty-five thousand people who live in the city."  Or "There are more than fifty-five thousand people living in the city." is also correct.  Or you can also say "More than 55,000 people live in the city."

    There are two sentenses here i.e.  There are more than 55,000 people + The 55,000 people live in the city.  But, they are compounded to be one sentense.
