1 250/1,000= 1 1/4. 250 divided by 5 since 5 is a common factor of 250 and 1,000. So anyways 250 divided by 5=50 Then I did 1,000 divided by 5 and got 200. So then I had done 50 divided by 5 and got 10. Then did the same to the other one and got 40. Then you divide 10 by 10 and get 1 then when you do 40 divided by 10 you get 4.
So the final answer is 1 1/4.
