One way you could solve this is to just multiply the top and bottom out so that you get 9/81, reducing it by 9/9 to get 1/9 or option C.
Another way would be to do
since dividing numbers with exponents would be subtracting the bottom exponent from the top exponent, provided that the base number (in this case 3) is the same for both. For this method, you would get 
, which is equal to 1/9 or .1 repeating, the same answer that you'd get with the first method.
Another way would be to do
Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
The expression is
We can follow the rule of "PEMDAS" here.
PEMDAS = Parenthesis, Exponents, Multiply, Divide, Add, Subtract
So, we first need to deal with Parenthesis. Next,
There aren't any exponents, so we deal with Multiplication of 7 and 3.
Then addition/subtraction.
Hence, the first step, from the answer choices, would be D, multiply 7 and 3
