The answer is C. 1/3
First, we realize that for both of the factions we see a common number eight, on in the denominator and the other in the numerator.
If you ever see a common number, like that, in different places, he didn’t denominator or numerator you can factor it out, meaning that you can cancel out the number and forget it.
After factoring or canceling out the numbers, then replace the previous number with the new number which is 1. Getting you to 3/1 x 1/9. After combining a number is you should end up with 3/9.
This fraction is not at its simplest form, so get the greatest common factor which is three divided by both numerator and denominator to get 1/3.
