What is 3/10 divided by 1/3
A: 10
B: 10/9
C: 3/30
D: 9/10
To divide fractions, you multiply the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second fraction.
In this case, we have $\frac{3}{10} \div \frac{1}{3}$. The reciprocal of $\frac{1}{3}$ is $\frac{3}{1}$.
So, we have $\frac{3}{10} \times \frac{3}{1}$.
Multiplying the numerators gives us $3 \times 3 = 9$, and multiplying the denominators gives us $10 \times 1 = 10$.
Therefore, $\frac{3}{10} \div \frac{1}{3} = \frac{9}{10}$.
So, the answer is $\boxed{\text{(D) } \frac{9}{10}}$.

To divide fractions, you multiply the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second fraction. The reciprocal of a fraction is obtained by swapping the numerator and the denominator.
So, to divide 3/10 by 1/3, you multiply 3/10 by the reciprocal of 1/3, which is 3/1.
Multiplying 3/10 by 3/1, you get:
(3/10) * (3/1) = (3 * 3)/(10 * 1) = 9/10
Therefore, the answer is option D: 9/10.
