Answer 1

Answer:

The correct answer is B) 7/15

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find this, we need to divide 4 3/8 by 9 3/8. In order to do that, we first need to make both improper fractions.

4 3/8 ÷ 9 3/8

35/8 ÷ 75/8

At this point we can drop the denominators and simply divide.

35/75

Now we can simplify by dividing both by 5.

7/15
