Answer: 2/3

Step-by-step explanation: We can rewrite the ratio 6 out of 9 as the fraction 6/9 by putting 6 in the position of the numerator and 9 in the position of the denominator.

Notice however, 6/9 is not in lowest terms so we need to divide the numerator and the denominator by the greatest common factor of 6 and 9 which is 3 to get the equivalent fraction 2/3.

Therefore, the ratio 6 out of 9 can be rewritten as the fraction 2/3.
