In right triangle $XYZ$, the measure of angle $X$ is $90^{\circ }$. Point $W$ lies on side $YZ$, and segment $WX$ is perpendicular to segment $YZ$ ($WX\perp YZ$). If the length of segment $WY=668$ and the length of segment $WX=501$, what is the value of $\tan Z$?

A

$\frac{3}{4}$

B

$\frac{3}{5}$

C

$\frac{4}{5}$

D

$\frac{4}{3}$
