Final answer:

The sum of the numbers provided is:

3+4+5+6+7+8+9=42.

The correct option is not given.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question asks to solve the mathematical expression 3/4/5/6/7 + 8 + 9. This expression requires us to do the division first according to the order of operations (PEMDAS/BODMAS).

We can simplify the sequence of divisions as a single division, since dividing by a number is the same as multiplying by its reciprocal.

Therefore, 3/4/5/6/7 can be rewritten as 3 x (1/4) x (1/5) x (1/6) x (1/7). Upon calculating, the division yields a result very close to 0, which can be ignored for the purpose of this calculation, leaving us with 8 + 9.

Adding 8 and 9 gives us 17, which is not in the list of options given in the question, suggesting a possible mistake in the question or in the listed options.

The correct option is not given.
