`(8)/(9)`

Explanation:

perform the indicated operation 1/3 divide 3/8

divide the fraction 1/3 and 3/8

When we divide the fractions, we flip the second fraction and multiply with first fraction.

`((1)/(3) )/((3)/(8) )`

When we flip 3/8 it becomes 8/3

`(1)/(3) \cdot (8)/(3)`

Multiply numerator with numerator and denominator with denominator

1 times 8 is 8

3 times 3 is 9

So final answer is
`(8)/(9)`
