Question

The length of a rectangle is 3b + 2 and the width is 9b + 6. What is the ratio of its length to its width? Simplify your answer.

Answer 1

\[\frac{ 3b +2 }{ 9b + 6 }\]
\[\frac{ 3b +2 }{ 3(3b + 2) }\]
\[\frac{ 1 }{ 3 } * \frac{ 3b +2 }{ (3b + 2) }\]
\[\frac{ 1 }{ 3 } * 1\]
\[\frac{ 1 }{ 3 }\]
