1 feet = 12 inches
9 feet = 12 x 9 inches = 108 inches
\(\frac{12}{108} = \frac{12\times 1}{12\times 9} = \frac{1}{9}\)
Your answer is:
\(\boxed{\boxed{\boxed{\boxed{\boxed{\boxed{\boxed{\boxed{\boxed{\boxed{\boxed{\boxed{\boxed{\boxed{\boxed{\boxed{\boxed{\boxed{\boxed{\boxed{\boxed{\boxed{\boxed{\boxed{\boxed{\boxed{\boxed{\boxed{\boxed{\boxed{\boxed{\boxed{\frac{1}{9}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}\)
