    • 8/9

    Correct Answer
    A. 8/9
    Explanation
    When dividing fractions, you need to multiply the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second fraction. In this case, the reciprocal of 3/4 is 4/3. So, when we multiply 2/3 by 4/3, the numerator becomes 2 * 4 = 8 and the denominator becomes 3 * 3 = 9. Therefore, the result is 8/9.

    Correct Answer
    A. 1/5
    Explanation
    To divide fractions, we multiply the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second fraction. In this case, we have 1/3 divided by 5/3. The reciprocal of 5/3 is 3/5. Multiplying 1/3 by 3/5 gives us (1*3)/(3*5) = 3/15, which simplifies to 1/5. Therefore, the correct answer is 1/5.
