Answer:

The correct option is A) 9.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided fraction.

[tex]\frac{3}{8} = \frac{?}{24}[/tex]

Replace ? with x and solve the above fraction for x.

[tex]\frac{3}{8} = \frac{x}{24}[/tex]

Multiply both the sides by 24.

[tex]\frac{3}{8}\times 24 = \frac{x}{24}\times 24[/tex]

[tex]3\times 3 = x[/tex]

[tex] x=9[/tex]

Hence, the value of ? or x should be 9.

The correct option is A) 9.
