#9/16 xx 2/3 = 3/8#

Explanation:

To multiplying 2 fractions together, multiply their numerators to get the new numerator and multiply their denominators to get the new denominator.

#9/16 xx 2/3 = (9xx2)/(16xx3)#

#= 18/48#

Subsequently, simplify the answer by checking if there is any common factors between the numerator and the denominator. In this case, we see that 6 is a factor of both 18 and 48.

#18/48 = (3xx6)/(8xx6)#

#= 3/8#
