Step-by-step explanation:

come on ! you can literally see that in the chart.

how many parts of the gray 3/8 are covered by the gray 1/4 ?

2 parts = 2/8 are clearly covered by 1/4.

2/8 is what part of 3/8 ?

it is the same question as "2 is what part of 3" ?

is 2 a quarter (1/4) of 3 ? no, 1/4×3 = 3/4 and not 2.

is 2 one third (1/3) of 3 ? no, 1/3 of 3 = 1/3×3 = 1 and not 2.

is 2 two thirds (2/3) of 3 ? ah, 2/3 × 3 = 2. that is correct !

is 2 three quarters (3/4) of 3 ? no, 3/4×3 = 9/4 and not 2.

once you have the same denominator, you can easily compare the numerators and ignore the denominators for such problems.
