C. 56/9
56 ninths

D. 21/24

Answer 1

To solve \( \frac{7}{3} \div \frac{3}{8} \), you can multiply by the reciprocal of the second fraction.

This gives:

\[ \frac{7}{3} \times \frac{8}{3} \]

Now, multiply the numerators together and the denominators together:

\[ \frac{7 \times 8}{3 \times 3} = \frac{56}{9} \]

So, the answer is \( \frac{56}{9} \).

The correct option is:

C. \( \frac{56}{9} \)
