Given the below expression;


(9)/(4)(.)/(.)(3)/(4)

To be able to solve this, we'll need to change the division sign to multiplication sign and find the reciprocal of the denominator;


\begin{gathered} (9)/(4)\ast(1)/((3)/(4)) \\ (9)/(4)\ast(4)/(3) \end{gathered}

Let's go ahead and simplify;


\begin{gathered} (9)/(1)\ast(1)/(3) \\ (9)/(3)=3 \end{gathered}

Therefore, our answer is 3.
