One third is greater, as it is two sixths.
one third because its a less amount than the six even though its taking out the same amount from both
Because six of anything is greater than five of the same thing and less than seven of them. Here you're talking about eighths, but it's equally true of songs, stars, or cows.
5/6 = 0.8333 which is greater than 0.8
One sixth is one piece of something that has been split into 6 pieces. One third is one piece of something that has been split into only 3 pieces. So each of the six pieces would be smaller than 1/3 of the original something. So one sixth (or 1/6 as a fraction) is LESS than one third and so is also less that two thirds (2/3).
