To find the ratios equivalent to \( \frac{3}{9} \), we can simplify \( \frac{3}{9} \):

\[ \frac{3}{9} = \frac{1}{3} \]

Now let's evaluate the response options for equivalence:

  1. \( \frac{6}{18} \): \[ \frac{6}{18} = \frac{1}{3} \quad \text{(equivalent)} \]

  2. \( \frac{1}{3} \): \[ \frac{1}{3} \quad \text{(equivalent)} \]

  3. \( \frac{1}{9} \): \[ \frac{1}{9} \quad \text{(not equivalent)} \]

  4. \( \frac{6}{9} \): \[ \frac{6}{9} = \frac{2}{3} \quad \text{(not equivalent)} \]

So, the two ratios that are equivalent to \( \frac{3}{9} \) are:

  • \( \frac{6}{18} \)
  • \( \frac{1}{3} \)
