Answer:


2(1)/(3)

Explanation:

Alrighty, when dividing fractions there is a trick called "keep, change, flip".

Step 1: Keep- Keep the first fraction the same


(7)/(9)

Step 2: Change- Change the division sign to a multiplication sign


(7)/(9) *

Step 3: Flip- Flip the second fraction (the reciprocal)


(1)/(3) --->(3)/(1)
(7)/(9) * (3)/(1)

Then, you multiply straight across


(7)/(9) * (3)/(1) = (21)/(9)

Now, we simplify


(21)/(9) = (7)/(3) = 2(1)/(3)
