With a calculator, divide the2nd term by the1st term which becomes a multiplier for the 3rd term.
For example:
1. 9/3^2=1*9^2=81
2.(3/5)/30%=0.6/0.3=2*60%=120%=6/5
3. 0.125/0.25=0.5*1.25=0.625
4.(1/8)/12.5=.01*20=0.2
5.15/6=2.5*36=90
Note: there are shorter methods to get the answers, but at least now you have a method.
