(HQ 9.3): Reversing the dividend and the divisor changes the equation. {javlogh boqHa''egh wej} would be 3 ÷ 6 and the answer would be a fraction

And we know how to do those now.

Fractions
wej loch cha' "2/3"; vagh loch wej "3/5"; loS loch jav "6/4". In theory, if appropriate in a mathematical discussion, one could say wa' loch wej "three one–ths". (Though perhaps a little grammatically aberrant, this would not be wa' luloch wej.))

Based on loch "be a fraction of, make up a portion of, constitute part of".

So we can finally finish the math example from the HolQeD article with javlogh boqHa''egh wej; chen jav loch wej. (I'm assuming that fractions work as a unique type of noun phrase in sentences even though they're constructed as complete sentences. Otherwise they would be quite difficult to actually use.)
