I am assuming you mean 8/9ths 4/6ths or 1/3rd if that is the case, 1/3rd is the smallest, followed by 4/6ths and then 8/9ths.

First convert to common denominator, which is 9.

8/9 = 8/9

4/6 = 6/9

1/3 = 3/9

Now compare the numerators in the common denominator fractions. The common denominator fraction with the smallest numerator is the smallest. The smallest is 3/9; so 1/3 is the smallest fraction.

What is a fraction of a fraction?

A fraction of a fraction is yet another (usually smaller) fraction. For example 1/4 of 1/3 = (1x1) / (4x3) = 1/12 Only when both or one of the fractions is an "improper" fraction (larger than 1) does the multiplication give a result that is larger than the beginning fractions. For example : 7/4 x 3/5 = 21/20 = 1 1/20
