#(351) / (44)#

Explanation:

#9 3/4 * 9/ (11)#

  • First convert the mixed fraction to an improper fraction

#(39)/4 * 9/(11)#

  • Multiply the two fractions

#(39*9)/(4*11)# = #(351) / (44)#

  • Factor the numerator and denominator. Cancel out common factors (if any)

#(351) / (44)# = #(3*3*3*13)/(2*2*11)#

Since they don't have any common factors, the simplest answer would have to be #(351) / (44)#.
