Answer: 3/8

Explanation:

3/8 would be greater-
Draw a rectangles then split it into fourths and then split those fourths by 2. Now you have a rectangle of eighths then shade three in. Then make another rectangle of thirds and shade 1/3. 3/8 would be bigger than 1/3 on the model.

3/8 because 1/3 is equal to 3/9
You can also multiply the numerator of each equation to the denominator of the other fraction to see which number is bigger
