E because 6 times .375 which is 3/8 = 16

Answer:  The correct option is

(C) \(\dfrac{1}{16}.\)

Step-by-step explanation:  Given that when a number x is multiplied by 6, the result is \(\dfrac{3}{8}.\)

We are to find the value of x.

According to the given information, the equation can be written and solved as follows :

\(x\times6=\dfrac{3}{8}\\\\\\\Rightarrow x=\dfrac{1}{6}\times\dfrac{3}{8}\\\\\\\Rightarrow x=\dfrac{1}{16}.\)

Thus, the required value of x is \(\dfrac{1}{16}.\)

Option (C) is CORRECT.
