To compare \( \frac{\pi}{9} \) and \( \frac{1}{3} \), we can convert \( \frac{1}{3} \) to a decimal or compare them by finding a common denominator.
Calculating the decimal values:
- \( \pi \) is approximately \( 3.14 \), so \( \frac{\pi}{9} \approx \frac{3.14}{9} \approx 0.349 \).
- \( \frac{1}{3} \approx 0.333 \).
Now, comparing:
- \( 0.349 > 0.333 \)
Thus, we have: \[ \frac{\pi}{9} > \frac{1}{3} \]
The correct symbol to use is \( > \).
