Answer:


(2)/(3)

Explanation:

You just need to find what both the numerator and denominator are divisible by, which in this case is 3. Then you divide both top and bottom by 3 to get two-thirds.


(6)/(9) ÷
(3)/(3)=
(2)/(3)

6/9 in simplest form is 2/3
All you have to do is find a factor that they both have in common and divide the numerator and denominator by it. In this problem, 3 would be the factor they have in common.
