How to get tracknumber sorting to work

I am a foobar novice at best.  I am trying to get my tracks to sort by tracknumber.  The problem is that my tags for tracknumber include the total number of tracks.  They are tagged 1/13,2/13,3/13 etc (see below for example of how foobar sorts this.)  Is there any easy solution?  Any help is greatly appreciated.

Many thanks from me too!  The only way I could get the tracknumber sorting to work was by Edit-->Sort-->Sort by Track Number. Sorting by clicking "Tracknumber" (tracknumber column display name) however presented the issue as explained by mogorp.
