Help plz I’m not good at this
Natalka [10]

Answer:

<u>The correct answer is A. 1/8</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Let's solve (1/3 * 9/16) / 1 1/2 = x</u>

(1/3 * 9/16) / 1 1/2 = x

9/48 / 1 1/2 = 9/48 * 2/3 = 18/144

18/144, we can simplify dividing by 18 at the numerator and the denominator, this way:

x = 18 ÷ 18/ 144 * 18 = 1/8

<u>The correct answer is A. 1/8</u>
