Answer:

42 over 18

Step-by-step explanation:

Notice that the quotient 42 over 18 can be written in factor form as:

(2 * 3 * 7) / (2 * 3 * 3)  and therefore, a pair of "2" factors and a pair of "3" factors from numerator and denominator can be cancelled, leaving the ratio 7 / 3 which is the one we were discussing.
