of 63 =​

Answer 1

`(3)/(5)`

Explanation:

We are asked to find the fractional part.

#Multiply 1/5 by 63:

`(1)/(5)* 63\\\\=12(3)/(5)`

=>12 is the whole number bit and 3/5 is the fractional part.

Hence, the fractional part is 3/5

#Alternatively since 63=60 +3, and 60 is wholly divisible by 5, the remainder, 3 multiplied by 1/5 will give you the fractional part:

`=(1)/(5)*3\\\\\\=(3)/(5)`
