Answer

$\frac{31.8}{1}$

Work Step by Step

As the atomic ratio of hydrogen to sulfur is $2:1$, hence we divide the atomic mass of sulfur by $\frac{1}{2}$ of the mass of hydrogen to find out the relative mass of sulfur. $\frac{Atomic \space mass \space of \space S}{Atomic \space mass \space of \space H}=\frac{9.330g}{\frac{1}{2}\times 0.587g}=\frac{31.8}{1}$
