To simplify the product of \( \frac{9}{7} \times \frac{2}{3} \), follow these steps:

### Step 1: Multiply the numerators.
\[
9 \times 2 = 18
\]

### Step 2: Multiply the denominators.
\[
7 \times 3 = 21
\]

### Step 3: Write the fraction.
\[
\frac{18}{21}
\]

### Step 4: Simplify the fraction by dividing both the numerator and denominator by their greatest common divisor (GCD). The GCD of 18 and 21 is 3.
\[
\frac{18 \div 3}{21 \div 3} = \frac{6}{7}
\]

Thus, the simplified fraction is \( \frac{6}{7} \).
