First we will change them on the same denominator which will be 12. If we do something to the denominator we must do the same to the numerator so :
For 1/3 we get  4/12 because (1/3)*4 = 4/12
And for 2/3 we get 8/12 because (2/3)*4 = 8/12
So 1/3 is the smaller fraction, 7/12 is in the middle and 2/3 is the bigger fraction.

7/12 is .58, and 1/3 is .33 and 2/3 is.66. I think that 7/12 is greater than 1/3, but smaller than 2/3.
