For 1/8, there are no common factors other than 1, so it is already simplest form.

For 3/26, there are no common factors other than 1, so it is already simplest form.

For 1/3, there are no common factors other than 1, so it is already simplest form.

Out of these options, the only ratio that simplifies to 9/78 is 1/6.
