Answer: D

Step-by-step explanation:

(3/8) / (5/9) is the same as multiplying (3/8) by (9/5) which is 27/40. I'm not sure if there's an error between C and D because those are both the same answer since dividing a negative number by a negative number gives you a positive number.

I think C was supposed to be -27/40 so D is the correct answer since it's positive.
