Answer:

a.
$(3)/(5)(7)\text{ or }(3* 7)/(5)$

b.
$(1)/(6)(4* 8)\text{ or }(4* 8)/(6)$

Explanation:

In numerical expressions we write numbers with the mathematical symbols ( i.e. '+', '-' etc )

a. Given phrase,

Three fifths of seven,

(3)/(5)(7)

=(3* 7)/(5)

=(21)/(5)

=4(1)/(5)

b. One sixth the product of four and eight,

(1)/(6)(4* 8)

=(4* 8)/(6)

=(32)/(6)

=5(1)/(3)
