Answer:

  4/12 = 3/9

Step-by-step explanation:

Each area model shows 3 rows of cells. In each model, one of those three rows is colored yellow. That is each model shows the fraction is equivalent to 1/3:

  4/12 = 1/3

  3/9 = 1/3

Then the relation between the given fractions is an application of the substitution property of equality:

  4/12 = 3/9
