Final answer:

To solve this problem, you need to divide 7/9 by 1/3. The answer is 7/3.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem, we need to divide 7/9 by 1/3.

Dividing fractions involves multiplying the numerator of the first fraction by the denominator of the second fraction, and the denominator of the first fraction by the numerator of the second fraction.

So, 7/9 ÷ 1/3 = (7/9) x (3/1). Simplifying this gives us 21/9.

We can also simplify this fraction to the lowest terms, which is 7/3.
