yes, the fractions are equivalent.
in order to solve this problem, you need both fractions to have the same denominators.
ask yourself if 3 can go into 9. it can.
you change the denominator of 3 to 9. but when you change the denominator, you also have to change the numerator. since 3 goes into 9 three times, you also multiply the numerator by 3.
1/3 times 3/3 equal 3/9. since 3/9 and 3/9 are the same, they are equivalent
