Martin can make 9/35 = 0.2571428571428571 backpacks. Answer: \boxed{0}.
Wrong
I apologize for the incorrect response. To find the number of backpacks Martin can make, we need to divide the total yardage of fabric (9 yards) by the yardage of fabric needed for each backpack (35 yards).

Number of backpacks = Total yardage of fabric / Yardage per backpack
Number of backpacks = 9 / 35

Calculating the division:

Number of backpacks = 0.2571428571428571...

We cannot have a fraction of a backpack, so Martin can make 0 backpacks with 9 yards of fabric.
