Respective rating used to report ballpark signal strength and clarity of a transmission. So a 5 by 1 means a strong signal is present, but what is saying cannot be understood. 1 by 5 means you can understand them, but a signal is barely coming in. 5 by 5 is ideal for both counts.
Can also be used nowadays to mean one is doing well.

-command this is alpha2IC, I got you 5 by 5.
b) How’s it going?
I’m 5 by 5.

This is an old aeronautical radio term. Radio signal strength and clarity were measured on a scale of 1 to 5. Today the term "Loud and Clear" is preferred to "5 by 5".
In slang use "5 by 5" means things are well, good, or as expected.

A shortened version of the drinking term "5 shots in 5 minutes". Can also be converted to 6 in 6, 7 in 7, or if you're trying to die, 10 in 10.
I did 5 in 5 and went to Rugby... there was mostly dudes there so I did 5 in 5 again and passed the fuck out.

My rider rating is a 4.3? You gotta drop the 5 for 5.
She was so nice and polite. Did she 5 for 5? Nope drop the 4.

When a womans vagina has been "used" to such a great extend that it now appears as flabby flesh flaps, similar to roast beef. Hence the 5 for 5 deal at Arby's where you get your fair share of roast beer for a nominal price.
Set the stage as one buddy to another after the successful conquest of a ripe young woman.
Johnny: "So yeah, I hit that last night"
Sam: "How was she, 5 for 5?"
Johnny : "Naw man (pleasant smile) it was like 1 for 99 cent!"
From this dialog Johnny and Sam were able to share information without hurting anyones feelings.
