A unit fraction is apparently a fraction with the numerator 1, so 3/4 is NOT a unit fraction, because its numerator is 3.

(I hadn't heard of unit fractions till now. As a respectable grammar-school boy, I only kept company with proper fractions, and I ignored the blandishments of improper fractions and the insults of vulgar fractions).
