    5/4 =1.25x100= 125%

    Well, since 4/4 is 100% and 1/4 is 25%, 2/4 is 50%, and 3/4 is 75%, 5/4 would be 125% because it increases 25% each time with the denominator of 4.

    You take 100/4= 25*5= 125%

    5/4 is 1.25. Multiply by 100 to turn this into a percent and you'll get 125.

    Divide 5 by 4 and multiply by 100.

    Example: 1 divided by 2 = 0.5

    0.5 x 100 = 50%

    hmmm...

    divide the denominator into the numerator and multiply by 100. fer zample:

    5/4 = 1.25 and 1.25 * 100 = 125%

    There you go...

    Viola!
