To express the points (1, -3) and (2, 6) as a proper fraction, we can consider the difference in the y-values and the difference in the x-values.

1. Identify the points:
- Point 1: (1, -3)
- Point 2: (2, 6)

2. Find the differences:
- Difference in y-values: \( 6 - (-3) = 6 + 3 = 9 \)
- Difference in x-values: \( 2 - 1 = 1 \)

3. Write the fraction:
\[
\frac{\text{Difference in y}}{\text{Difference in x}} = \frac{9}{1}
\]

Since \( 9/1 \) simplifies to \( 9 \), it is an integer, not a proper fraction. In terms of fractions, to express it in the context of ratios, we can show that the change in y is 9 times the change in x.

Thus, the result is simply the difference represented as a fraction:
\[
\frac{9}{1}
\]
