It will be 9. here’s the calculator
I’m not sure what happened while you were writing this, but if I’m reading it right, “My” has 18 books. If “My” has 3 times as many as 6, that also means 3 times 6, which is 18.
To evaluate two fractions being divided, you must turn the right fraction into a reciprocal. That means you must put the bottom number at the top and then put the top number on the bottom (you’re basically switching them).
8/13 / 3/2
Now, once you turned the other number into a reciprocal, you multiply across. The top number times the other top number and do this to the bottom numbers, too.
8/13 * 3/2 = 24/26
You found the answer, 24/26. But as you can see, it’s not one of the choices. That’s because you need to simplify.
24/26 / 2/2 = 12/13
12/13 is your answer, or choice C!
I hope this helped. Comment below if you have any questions.
