See a solution process below:

Explanation:

First, convert the fraction to a decimal number:

#63/20 = (60 + 3)/20 = 60/20 + 3/20 = 3 + 0.15 = 3.15#

Next, convert the mixed number to a decimal number:

#3 1/10 = 3 + 1/10 = 3 + 0.1 = 3.1#

We can now order these numbers as:

#3.1"; "3.15"; "3.64"; " 3.646#
