3/6 . . . . .
Yes.  2 of anything is less than 3 of the same thing ... like sixths. 

2/8 . . . . .
No.  When changed to common denominator, the inequality
would say
                            8/24 <  6/24
and that's not true.

2/4 . . . . .
Yes.  When changed to common denominator,
the inequality would say
