Answer:D.6

Step-by-step explanation:Use KFC

Keep Flip Change

Base problem is : 9/2 / 3/4

Keep the first fraction, change the sign of the middle number to multiplication and change the second fraction

9 4

_ * _

2 3

Criss Cross Divide and Multiply Across

3 goes into 9 3 times so the numerator will be 3, the denominator will be a 1

2 goes into 4 2 times so the numerator will be 2, the denominator will be 1

Multiply 2 and 3 and you'll get 6.
