To convert the mixed number 1 1/4 to an improper fraction, multiply the whole number part (1) by the denominator of the fraction (4), then add the numerator of the fraction (1). This result becomes the new numerator, and the denominator remains the same. So:

[ 1 \frac{1}{4} = \frac{(1 \times 4) + 1}{4} = \frac{4 + 1}{4} = \frac{5}{4} ]

Therefore, 1 1/4 as an improper fraction is ( \frac{5}{4} ).
