The question here asks for a number, such that if we multiply
3(1)/(4) by this number, the result will be bigger than
3 (1)/(4)

This means that this number, which we will call p, just needs to be bigger than 1.

So, it could be for example 1.5 that is
1 (1)/(2) - this is the correct answer!

and let's check:

3(1)/(4)*1
(1)/(2)=
(13)/(4)* (3)/(2) =
(39)/(8)=4(7)/(8)
