ANSWER

D. 2/3

Step-by-step explanation

We want to solve:

Convert 1 1/3 to improper fraction:

$\begin{gathered} (4)/(3)/\text{ 2} \\ (4)/(3)\text{ }/\text{ }(2)/(1) \end{gathered}$

Now, flip 2/1 to become 1/2:

$(4)/(3)\cdot\text{ }(1)/(2)$

Now, simplify:

$(4)/(3)\cdot\text{ }(1)/(2)\text{ = }(2)/(3)$

The answer is Option D.
