To simplify the expression \((15^{-3} \cdot 4^{7})^{0} / 4^{-3}\), we can apply the properties of exponents.

  1. Applying the zero exponent rule: Any non-zero number raised to the power of zero is 1. \[ (15^{-3} \cdot 4^{7})^{0} = 1 \]

  2. Now substitute this back into the expression: \[ \frac{1}{4^{-3}} \]

  3. Apply the negative exponent rule: \(4^{-3}\) can be rewritten as \( \frac{1}{4^3}\), thus: \[ \frac{1}{4^{-3}} = 4^{3} \]

  4. Calculate \(4^3\): \[ 4^3 = 64 \]

So, the expression simplifies to \(64\).

Therefore, the equivalent expression is: \[ 64 \]

Thus, the correct answer is: 64.
