Answer 1

We are asked to find 1/3 of 3/7 using a rectangular fraction model.

Let us draw a rectangular fraction model.

1/3 means make 3 rows

3/7 means make 7 columns

`(1)/(3)*(3)/(7)=(3)/(21)`

Three 3 filled boxes represent the numerator and the total 21 boxes represent the denominator.

Therefore, the result is 3/21
