Answer 1

$= \bf \dfrac{12}{9}$

divide the fractions in both numerator and denominators by 3 as 9 and 12 are the multiples of 3.

briefly explained-

$\sf{ \underbrace{3 \times 3}}_{(factors)} = \sf{ \red{ 9}} \: ...(multiple)$

$\sf{ \underbrace{3 \times 4}}_{(factors)} = \sf{ \red{12}} \: ...(multiple)</p><p>$

-----------------------------------------

$\longrightarrow\dfrac{12}{9}$

converting into simplest form:-

$\longrightarrow \dfrac{4}{3}$

now writing in ratio :-

4 : 3

FINAL ANSWER:-

• 4:3
