Answer:
(21)/(8) or 2.625

Explanation:

Improper fractions

First, we want to convert 1 3/4 to an improper fraction.

We multiply the denominator(4) by the coefficient (1) and add it to the numerator (3).

This gets us
(7)/(4)

Keep change flip

When dividing fractions, a helpful thing to remember is "keep change flip"

This means you keep the first number as it is, change the division sign to multiply, and flip the divisor, in this case 2/3, to be 3/2.

So, the problem becomes
(7)/(4) *(3)/(2)

Now, you jut multiply the numerators and denominators


(7*3)/(4*2) =(21)/(8)=2.625
