.=_/slashmark

Fractions

•  A true fraction has one number written above another number: use the simple numeric fraction line.

•  In fractions with numerals, there is no need to repeat the numeric indicator after the fraction line (because it’s allowed in numeric mode along with commas, decimals).

•  Mixed fractions are treated as two unspaced numeric items. •  Follow print to differentiate between a fraction line or slash.
