To simplify \( 125 \times \frac{4}{3} \):

  1. Convert \( 125 \) to a fraction: \( 125 = \frac{125}{1} \).
  2. Multiply the fractions: \[ \frac{125}{1} \times \frac{4}{3} = \frac{125 \times 4}{1 \times 3} = \frac{500}{3} \]

The value of \( 125 \times \frac{4}{3} \) simplifies to \( \frac{500}{3} \), which is approximately \( 166.67 \).

None of the provided response options (625, 5, 125, or 25) represent the result of \( 125 \times \frac{4}{3} \). It seems there might be a misunderstanding or error in the question or options given. If you're looking for the result of just \( \frac{4}{3} \) or another operation, please clarify!
