B.
8 × 8

8 × 6

C.

Answer 1

A.
`8* (8)/(6)`

Explanation:

We want to find an expression that is equivalent to
`(8* 8)/(6)`

This expression can be rewritten as:

`(8)/(1)* (8)/(6)`

This expression is also the same as:

`8* (8)/(6)`

Form the given option, the only correct expression is

A.
`8* (8)/(6)`

Option B is not correct because:

`(8* 8)/(8* 6)=(8)/(6)`

C is also not equivalent because:

`(8+8)/(8+6)=(16)/(14)`

D is not equivalent because:

`8+(8)/(6)=8(8)/(6)`
