We have,

15.75/0.25

The giant one method of dividing fractions involves multiplication of both the numerator and the denominator with the reciprocal/inverse of the denominator.

15.75 = 1575/100

= 63/4

Now, 0.25 = 25/100

= 1/4

So, 15.75/0.25 = 63/4/1/4

= (63 × 4)/(1 × 4)

= 63

 

Hence,  15.75/0.25 = 63
