To solve \(\frac{3}{5} \times \frac{1}{3}\):

1. Multiply the numerators: \(3 \times 1 = 3\)
2. Multiply the denominators: \(5 \times 3 = 15\)

So, \(\frac{3}{5} \times \frac{1}{3} = \frac{3}{15}\).

Now simplify \(\frac{3}{15}\). Since both 3 and 15 have a common factor of 3, divide both the numerator and the denominator by 3:

\[
\frac{3}{15} = \frac{3 \div 3}{15 \div 3} = \frac{1}{5}
\]

Thus, \(\frac{3}{5} \times \frac{1}{3} = \frac{1}{5}\).
