Answer: The correct option is

(C)
(1)/(16).

Step-by-step explanation: Given that when a number x is multiplied by 6, the result is
(3)/(8).

We are to find the value of x.

According to the given information, the equation can be written and solved as follows :

$x*6=(3)/(8)\\\\\\\Rightarrow x=(1)/(6)*(3)/(8)\\\\\\\Rightarrow x=(1)/(16).$

Thus, the required value of x is
(1)/(16).

Option (C) is CORRECT.
