Answer:

Since there are no abcd options, I'll just give the answer here: 3/4 divided by 5/7 is 21/20

Explanation:

First, we have to convert the division sign to a multiplication sign, so we do that by using the reciprocal of the second fraction:

3/4 divided by 5/7 will turn into 3/4 * 7/5

Here is how to solve that:

3 7

-- * --

4 5

3*7 is 21, and 4*5 is 20, so the final fraction is 21/20, final answer.
