Your approach to this sort of problem is first to convert the data into it lowest fractional form. (Which it is already in this case.)

Next, find the lowest common multiple of the denominators.

6/10 and 3/8 have the lowest multiple of their denominators = 1/40.

Remember the denominator is the bit on the bottom.

So multiplying the fractions so they both have their denominator as 40.

This gives us 6/10 = 24/40 and 3/8 = 15/40.

You should find it easy to decide which of these new fractions is the larger.
