A 4/4 size cello is larger.

Explanation:

Cellos (and violins, violas, etc), are typically made in four different sizes, with 1/4 being the smallest size and 4/4 being the standard, largest size that an adult would typically use. However, they are made in larger and even smaller sizes.

A 3/4 cello has a body length of #~~45"#, whereas a 4/4 cello has a body length of #~~48"#. So, more specifically, the difference is about three inches.
