If you're saying it, either one is fine, because no one can hear the difference anyway. If you're writing it, it depends on the context and the punctuation. If you hyphenate it, though, either one will work with an article: both a two-third share and a two-thirds share mean the same thing: a share consisting of 2/3 of whatever's being divided. – John Lawler Oct 19 '20 at 15:03
