First, change 1.250 into a fraction.
1.250=1.25
.25=3/4
1 3/4

If you don't need to change it into a fraction, you could simply take off the 0.
1.250=1.25

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.
