Why is 1/6 greater than 1/8 but less than 1/3?

If you put it all in the same denominator, which will be 24. So you times 6 by 4 to get there so you times the numerator as well, So now 1/6 = 4/24. And it will be the same for 1/8. Times by 3 to get 24. So its 3/24, and 1/3 times by 8 to get 25 1/3 = 8/24 so now you have the same denominator.
1/6 = 4/24
1/8 = 3/24
1/3 = 8/24
And as you can see 1/6 is bigger than 1/8 and less than 1/3

1/6 = 4/24

1/8 = 3/24

1/3 = 8/24

4/24 is greater than 3/24, but its less than 8/24.

Hope this helped☺☺
