Answer:

3/2

Explanation:

As, 9 is a factor of three so, 9÷3 = 3

So now it's like this: 7/1 x 3/14

Now here 14 is also a factor of 7 so 7 x 2 = 14

So we will cancel it

So, now it's like this 1/1 x 3/2

So finally each an every number that is multipled by 1 is the same so the finally product = 3/2

Or u can just multiply and then divide

7/3 x 9/14 = 63/42

Now u can check both are divisible by 7

So now we will divide by seven so now its

9/6

Here also they are divisible by 3

Divide both numerator and denominator

And u will get 9÷ 3 = 3

And 6÷3 = 2

So, = 3/2

Chose the easier for u!

Hope it helps!
