m1v1 = m2v2

$(\frac{{{v_1}}}{{{v_2}}} = \frac{{{m_2}}}{{{m_1}}} = \frac{3}{1} = 3)$

$(\frac{{K{E_1}}}{{K{E_2}}} = \frac{\frac{1}{2}{{m_1}v_1^2}}{\frac{1}{2}{{m_2}v_2^2}}= \frac{{{m_1}v_1^2}}{{{m_2}v_2^2}} = \left( {\frac{{{m_1}}}{{{m_2}}}} \right){\left( {\frac{{{v_1}}}{{{v_2}}}} \right)^2} = \frac{1}{3}{\left( 3 \right)^2} = 3)$
