Since 3^6 + 3^4 + 3^2 = 3^2 + 3^4 + 3^6, we can see that the numerator and denominator are EQUAL
So, this fraction simplifies to equal 1

=3^6+3^4+3^2/3^2+3^4+3^6
=3^2(3^4+3^2+1)/3^2(1+3^2+3^4)
we can see both denominator and numerator is equal
so 1 is the answer.

Considering that it comes from the GRE Big book.

At the time they rated it as a medium.

ETS is the culprit :)
