Kudos for the right answer and explanation
We can solve this question using
matching operations Given:
Quantity A: \(8+ (6 \times \frac{1}{14})\)
Quantity B: \(8 + \frac{3}{7}\)
Subtract 8 from both quantities to get:
Quantity A: \(6 \times \frac{1}{14}\)
Quantity B: \(\frac{3}{7}\)
Evaluate and simplify to get:
Quantity A: \(6 \times \frac{1}{14}=\frac{6}{14} = \frac{3}{7}\)
Quantity B: \(\frac{3}{7}\)
Answer: C
