Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

To find A you have to divide 3/5 by 4 so that would not work.

To find B you have to subtract 1/4 from 3/5 and that doesn't match the problem.

To find C you do divide 3/5 by 1/4 which matches the problem.

And lastly for D you would divide 1/4 by 3/5 which is the opposite of what the question is asking for.
