Hello from MrBillDoesMath!

Answer:   Yes,    (8 1/2) /`17 = ( 17 11/12) /23

** I think you meant  11 1/2 is to 23  NOT   17 11 1/2 is to 23"


Discussion:

First,  8 1/2 =   17/2 and

(17/2 ) / 17 = 1/2

Second  11 1/2 = 23/2 and

(23/2)/ 23 = 1/2

IN other words, the ratiors are the same:


8 1/2                 11 1/2

-------      =         -------

17                      23



Thank you,

MrB
