Answer:

9/4

Step-by-step explanation:

When you divide by a number, whole number or fraction, it's exactly like multiplying by its inverse.

Like if you divide 4 by 2,  you can easily express that has 4 * 1/2.

In the same manner, when you divide 3/4 by 1/3, you can say that you're multiplying 3/4 by 3/1

The result of 3/4 * 3/1 = 9 / 4

Which you cannot simplify because 9 and 4 don't have any common factors (other than 1).  The only other way to express it would be 3²/2² or (3/2)²
