Answer:

3 7/50

Explanation:

so you need them to become common denominators

a common multiple they both have would be is 77

6/7 becomes 66/77 and 3/11 becomes 21/77

now we divide

keep the 66/77 as is and flip 21/77 (keep, change, flip)

so now our equation looks like this: 66/77 x 77/21

and your answer is 3.14

but as a fraction it is 157/50 and to simplified it would be 3 7/50 (mixed fraction)
