Answer: 9/12, 2/12

Step-by-step explanation:

Start by writing multiples of 6 and 4

4: 4, 8, 12

6: 6, 12, 18

Did you see the multiple that both numbers have? Yup, it's 12. So that has to be your denominator for both fractions. This is because you have to have the LEAST COMMON Denominator (LCD). So both numbers have 12 in common as one of their multiples and, it's the least common one because there are no numbers that come before it that are common for both numbers. Now, you just have to change the denominators of both fractions into 12. To do that to 3/4, just multiply the top and bottom by 3 to get 9/12. To do that to 1/6, just multiply the top and bottom by 2 to get 2/12.  Hope this helps!

NOTE: REMEBER THAT WHATEVER YOU DO TO THE TOP OF A FRACTION, YOU HAVE TO DO IT TO THE BOTTOM TOO (AND VICE VERSA)
