No.
Ok is the answer D?
First, you have to figure out what fraction "6 out of 9" is.
Since Ms. Sue said that B is incorrect, it leaves me with only one answer.
"6 out of 9" is 6/9 as a fraction.
This, when simplified, is 2/3.
I believe you made two errors when you got 3/2 and 3.
First error:
Instead of 6/9, I believe you did 9/6, which equals 3/2. 9/6 however, is not the fraction used. Therefore, B is incorrect.
Second error:
For this one, I believe you mistakenly put a 3 instead of 6 in "9/6". This would be 9/3. When simplified, this is 3. However, "9/3" is not the fraction used. Therefore, this is also incorrect.
I hope this helps! :)
P.S. In about 20 minutes, I will have to go, and I will probably help you tomorrow.
