Hey there :)

[tex] \frac{3}{10} [/tex] cup of oil
[tex] \frac{2}{5} [/tex] full

[tex] \frac{3}{10} [/tex] ÷ [tex] \frac{2}{5} [/tex]
Flip the division sign and find the reciprocal

[tex] \frac{3}{10} [/tex] x [tex] \frac{5}{2} [/tex]
[tex] \frac{3}{4} [/tex]

Your answer is the third option:
The amount of oil that can still be poured in the bowl is [tex] \frac{3}{4} [/tex] cups
