9/8

Step-by-step explanation:

3/4 divided by 2/3

$\begin{gathered} (3)/(4)/\text{ }(2)/(3) \\ we\text{ apply the KCF} \end{gathered}$

KCF: keep the first fraction, change the sign to multiplication. Then flip the second fraction

$\begin{gathered} \text{flip 2/3 = 3/2} \\ \frac{3}{4\text{ }}*(3)/(2) \\ =\text{ 9/8} \end{gathered}$
