Answer:

Yes

Explanation:

To see whether two fractions are equivalent or not we need to simplify them

9:3 can be simplified to 3:1 as the biggest common divisor of 9 and 3 is 3

6:2 can be simplified to 3:1 since the biggest common divisor of this set is 2

as seen we can simplify both to 3:1 so yes, they are equivalent
