Write siny = sinx/3  and squaring both sides,
(siny)^2 = (sinx)^2/9..............(1)
(cosy)^2 = 4(cosx)^2........(2)
add both of them,
and equate it to 1.
and solve in sinx or cosx in any of them by writing cosx = 1 – sin^2x or vice versa.
get x values and then simply y values. and then u can find the final value.

siny=sinx/3
sin^2y=sin^2x/9
similarly,
cos^y=4cos^2x
then,sin^2y+cos^2y=sin^2x/9+4cos^2x
1=(sin^2x+36cos^2x)/9
9=sin^2x+36cos^2x
sin^2x+36(1-sin^2x)=9
by solving
sinx=27/35
   now,sin^2x+cos^2x=36sin^2y+cos^2y
             4=36(1-cos^2y)+cos^2y
by solving cosy=32/35
 
now, given that
sinx/siny=3 and cosx/cosy=1/2
sinx=3siny-------(1) and 2cosx=cosy---------(2)
multiplying (1) and (2)
(sinx)(2cosx)=3sinycosy
sin2x=(3/2)sin2y
sin2x/sin2y=3/2
      and
sin^2x=27/35
cos^2x=1-27/35=8/35
cos^2y=32/35
sin^2y=1-32/35=3/35
 
and finally,
(sin2x/sin2y)+(cos2x/cos2y)=(3/2)+[(8/35)-(27/35)]/[(32/35)-(3/25)]
                                              =3/2-19/29
                                              =49/58
