Explanation

a fraction is a proportion of the total, for example


(1)/(2)

the numerator indicates the number of fractions you take and the denominator indicates the number of fraction in wich the number is divided

so

Step 1

so, to solve this, get a rectangle, divide by the number in the numerator and take the number of pieces as the number in the denominator

a)3/6

divide the rectangle in 6 and take 3

now for 3/8

divide the rectangle in 6 and take 3

as we can see in the graphs, the area of the blue zone is greater in 3/6

I hope this helps you
