Answer:

No

Explanation:

To find this we'll have to find a common denominator for both fractions to make it easier to compare.

Since 63/100 is already in it's simplest form, we'll just have to turn 3/5's denominator into 100.

So, 3/5 will become 60/100 because 5 x 20 = 100 so we'll have to do it for the numerator too.

3 x 20 = 60

Now we can compare

60/100 < 63/100

So, 3/5 is not greater than 63/100.
