5/4 also known as 1 1/4
5 x 1/4 = 5/1 x 1/4 = 5/4 or 1 1/4 or 1.25
5 can also be written as 5/1, making the equation 5/1 x 1/4. Multiplying both numerators together (5x1) and noth denominators together (1x4), would make the final answer 5/4.
5x1/4 = 5/1 x 1/4 = 5/4 = 1.25
Turn 5 into a fraction (5/1) then multiply the top and bottom of the two fractions together. This gives you five quarters, as 1/4 is 0.25 and 4/4 is 1, the answer is 1.25.
1.25 (5 x 1/4 = 5/4 = 1 1/4 = 1.25)
5 times 1/4 Is 5/4
5/1 times 1/4 is 5/4 or 1.25 or 1 1/4

5 times 1/4 (a quarter) is 5 x1/4 = 5/4 (FIVE QUARTERS)
5 times 1/4 (a quarter) is 5 x1/4 = 5/4 (FIVE QUARTERS)
5/4, simpified to 1½

5 times 1/4 is essentially 1/4 added 5 times. 1/4 is 0.25, 4 times 0.25 is 1, plus 0.25 would be 1.25.
5*1/4 = 5/4=1.25
