is a little odd in that its members always uses the numerator and denominator reduced to lowest terms -, for instance. Similarly, is  ( is in fact the way to reduce a  to an irreducible fraction).

However, and  are completely distinct types, even though all of their members have the same value. I can't think of a good way to phrase this, though. The current wording ("Both numerator and denominator are automatically reduced to the lowest terms.") may be read to imply that and  are the same type, which is not the case. T.
