To solve the expression - 7/9 * 3/5, you need to multiply the numerators (the numbers on top) together and multiply the denominators (the numbers on the bottom) together.

So, for the numerator, you would multiply 7 and 3: 7 * 3 = 21.

And for the denominator, you would multiply 9 and 5: 9 * 5 = 45.

Therefore, the simplified answer is 21/45.

However, we can further simplify this fraction by dividing both the numerator and denominator by their greatest common divisor, which is 3.

Dividing 21 by 3 gives us 7, and dividing 45 by 3 gives us 15.

So, the final simplified answer is 7/15.

Hence, the correct answer is Option C - 7/15.
