3 over 9, 3/9, or
(3)/(9)

For ratios, the numerator usually indicates how much of a specific option you have, and the denomenator is often times the total of the set.

In this case, you have a total of 9 shades, if you add the greens and blues together. Three of them, are blue.

Hopefully this helps!
