Answer:

3/4 x 4/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

We can solve each Arithmetic vulgar fraction, to find the value less than 1.

[tex] \sf \rightarrow \boxed{ \frac{3}{4} \times \frac{4}{3}} = \frac{12}{12} = 1[/tex]

The first Calculation is greater than 1 so that rules it out.

[tex] \sf \rightarrow \boxed{ \frac{3}{4} \times \frac{6}{3}} = \frac{18}{12} = \frac{3}{2} [/tex]

In this calculation it's value 3/2 is greater than 1 which is 1.5 in decimal (base 10)

[tex] \sf \rightarrow \boxed{ \frac{3}{4} \times \frac{4}{4}} = \frac{12}{16} = \bold{ \frac{3}{4} < 1 }[/tex]

This calculation gave us 3/4 which is 0.25 less than 1 which is the correct option

[tex] \sf \rightarrow \boxed{ \frac{3}{4} \times \frac{8}{4}} = \frac{24}{16} = \frac{3}{2} [/tex]

Same is the second calculation the value is greater than 1.

In conclusion, the correct expression that's less than 1 is;
