Hi there,
Turn your fractions into decimals
by dividing the bottom number int the top one.
1/3 = 0.3333333333
2/3 = 0.6666666666
3/6 = 0.5
3/4 = 0.75
Least value 1/3
Greatest value 3/4
Hope this helps:-)

I would compare decimal values, as the other tutor did.

Another way is to find a common denominator.
12 will work
1/3 = 4/12
2/3 = 8/12
3/6 = 6/12
3/4 = 9/12
----------
That works well for these 4 values, but it can be cumbersome sometimes.
