To order fractions from least to greatest you have to keep in mind that fractions are divisions.

So the greater the denominator of the fraction, the smaller is the number they represent.

The denominators are 4, 6 and, 8, where the values from greatest to smaller are 8 > 6 > 4

So, the fraction with the greater denominator "8" will be the smaller number, and so on


(1)/(8)>(3)/(6)>(1)/(4)
