1/3 means one third.
There are three thirds in a whole. Third means one part from three equal parts.
If you take one third away from three thirds, you are left with two thirds.
So, if 1/3 (one third) of the eggs were cracked, 2/3 (two thirds) of the eggs were not cracked..
Please ask if this is unclear
