Let Devi’s storybooks be 8 units.
Then 3/4 of Devi’s storybooks is 6 units.
We can see, from here, that 2/3 of Zainal’s storybooks must be 6 units.
Zainal must have had 9 units of storybooks.
Ratio Devi : Zainal must be 8 : 9.
Then 3/4 of Devi’s storybooks is 6 units.
We can see, from here, that 2/3 of Zainal’s storybooks must be 6 units.
Zainal must have had 9 units of storybooks.

Mathematically, change both denominator of the fraction to the same denominator to compare.
D: 3/4 = 9/12
Z: 2/3 = 8/12
Therefore taking the numerator,
D : Z
9 : 8
D: 3/4 = 9/12
Z: 2/3 = 8/12
Therefore taking the numerator,
D : Z
9 : 8
