Hi there! To divide fractions, keep, change, flip. In other words, keep the first fraction the same, change division into multiplication, and flip the second fraction over. In this case, it would come out as this:
7/9 * 6/5. Now, multiply straight across. 7/9 * 6/5 is 42/45 or 14/15 in simplest form. The quotient to the problem is 14/15.
