Answer:

$\frac{1}{ 9 }$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\huge \frac{ {9}^{ \frac{1}{2}b } }{ {3}^{a} } \\ \\ = \huge \frac{ {( {3}^{2} )}^{ \frac{1}{2}b } }{ {3}^{a} } \\ \\ = \huge \frac{ { {3}}^{2 \times \frac{1}{2}b } }{ {3}^{a} } \\ \\ \huge = \frac{ {3}^{b} }{ {3}^{a} } \\ \\ \huge = \frac{1}{ {3}^{a - b} } \\ \\ \huge= \frac{1}{ {3}^{2} } \\ ( \because \: a - b = 2)\\ \\ \huge = \frac{1}{ 9 }$
