______
.04 | 5.00

when dividing by a decimal, u have to move the decimal so many spaces to the left to make it a whole number....keeping in mind, that u have to move it the same number of spaces on the other side as well.
So ur problem becomes :

125
_____
4 | 500
4
-----
10
8
------
20
20
-------
0

so 5.00 divided by .04 = 125
