$\huge{\boxed{\frac{1}{2}}}$

To divide by a fraction, you multiply by its reciprocal, which you find by flipping the numerator and the denominator. $\frac{1}{3} \div \frac{6}{9} = \frac{1}{3} * \frac{9}{6}$

Multiply the numerators and the denominators separately. $\frac{1}{3} * \frac{9}{6} = \frac{1*9}{3*6} = \frac{9}{18}$

Simplify by dividing both sides of the equation by . $\frac{9 \div 9}{18 \div 9} = \boxed{\frac{1}{2}}$

The correct answer is: " $\frac{1}{2}$ " .

________________________________________________

or; in decimal form: " 0.5 " .

________________________________________________

Step-by-step explanation:

________________________________________________

Given: " (1/3) / (6/9) " ;

Rewrite as: " $\frac{1}{3}$ ÷ $\frac{6}{9}$ " ;

Note that: " $\frac{6}{9}$ " ;

= (6 ÷ 3) / (9÷ 3} ;

= $\frac{2}{3}$ ;

Rewrite the original expression:

" $\frac{1}{3}$ ÷ " $\frac{2}{3}$ " ;

Now, "dividing by a fraction" results in the same value as:

"multiplying by the inverse—or reciprocal" value:

_________________________________________________

" $\frac{1}{3}$ ÷ $\frac{2}{3}$ " ;

= " $\frac{1}{3}$ * $\frac{3}{2}$ " ;

________________________________________________

The " 3 's " both cancel out to "1's" ;

→ {since: " $\frac{3}{3} = 1$ " ;

________________________________________________

And we have:

→ " $\frac{1}{1}$ * $\frac{1}{2}$ " ;

= 1 * $\frac{1}{2}$ ;

= " $\frac{1}{2}$ " .

________________________________________________

The correct answer is: " $\frac{1}{2}$ " .

or; in decimal form: " 0.5 " .
