1.25 tablespoons is 3.75 teaspoons, 18.5 ml, or 0.625 fluid ounce. This is 1 tablespoon plus 1/4 tablespoon, written as a decimal. Practically you would measure 1 tablespoon and add 3/4 teaspoon extra (since 1/4 tbsp = 3/4 tsp). The quantity appears in scaled-up baking recipes for spices, leaveners, and salt where the original 1-tablespoon measure has been multiplied by 1.25 for a slightly larger batch. In Australia, 1.25 of a 20 ml tablespoon is 25 ml (= 5 metric teaspoons).
