Multiple Choice

A supply chain analyst is auditing a performance ratio modeled by the complex rational expression 13c+41c+4+c3\frac{1-\frac{3}{c+4}}{\frac{1}{c+4}+\frac{c}{3}}. During the simplification process using the division method, the analyst has already simplified the numerator and denominator into single fractions as follows:

c+1c+4c2+4c+33(c+4)\frac{\frac{c+1}{c+4}}{\frac{c^2+4c+3}{3(c+4)}}

To continue the simplification by rewriting this as a multiplication problem, which of the following is the correct reciprocal of the divisor (the denominator) that must be used?
