Yes 4/5 is alot larger than 1/3.
Do your math - think about a 1 cup measuring cup if you divided the cup into 3 equal sections and only filled one section you would still have alot to fill correct? Now take that same cup and divide it into 5 equal sections and fill up 4 of those sections you would not have much more before it was full.
Does that make sense?
