The correct answer is: $\frac{5}{4}$
Explanation
Percent means “per hundred”, so convert 125% to a fraction by writing it over 100 and simplifying.
Steps:
- First step: $$\frac{125}{100}$$
- Second step (simplify by dividing numerator and denominator by 25): $$\frac{125\div25}{100\div25}=\frac{5}{4}$$
- Final step (mixed number form): $$1\frac{1}{4}$$
Therefore, 125% = $\frac{5}{4}$ (which is also $1\frac{1}{4}$).
