Convert to equivalent fractions with the same denominator then the numerators can be compared:

1/3 = (1×2)/(3×2) = 2/6

3/6 = 3/6

2 < 3 → 2/6 < 3/6

→ 1/3 < 3/6.

Thus three sixths is greater than one third.

You need to convert the fractions to a common denominator (6, in this case). Then you can compare them easily - just compare the numerators of the converted fractions.
