Answer:

A

Explanation:

For the equation to be true, any number that would be multiplied by 7/5 should give us a number that is less than 7/5.

This means any number we are going to use to multiply 7/5 must not be less than 1.

²/3 is less than 1.

Let's multiply and see:

⁷/5 × ⅔ < ⁷/5

14/15 < ⁷/5 (this is true because ⁷/5 is greater than 14/15)

Therefore, the answer is A.
