The answer is: 45 .
________________________________

3/5 * 75 = 3/5 * 75/1 ;

The "5" cancels to a "1"; and the "75" cancels to a "15" ;
since "75÷5 = 15" ; and since "5÷5 =1" .

So, rewrite the problem:

3/1 = 15/1 = 45/1 = 45.
___________________________
Other method:
___________________________
3/5 * 75 = 6/10 * 75 = 0.6 * 75 = 45.0 = 45 .
