One half is greater. If some had 100 dollars and they said you could have some of it, would you rather get 50 dollars or 33 dollars and some change?
One half is when the whole piece is divided into two pieces - 1/2 + 1/2 =1
One third is when the whole piece is divided into three pieces - 1/3+1/3+1/3 = 1
So, if you divide something into 2 pieces the pieces will be bigger than if you divide something into 3 pieces.
