Answer:

4/5

Explanation:

4/5 is equal to 80%, which is more than 75%. How you can figure this out is that you can determine 4/5 of 100, (divide 100 by 5 and pick the 4th part,) to get 80. 75% is equal to 3/4, so divide 100 by 4 and shoose the 3rd part, 75. Therefore, 4/5 is greater than 75%.

Hope this helps! :)
