Questions tagged [nicefrac]
The `nicefrac`package allows you to type nice fractions, that is, fractions with the numerator in superscript and in a smaller font size followed by a fraction slash, which is followed by the denominator in subscript and in a smaller font size. This is appropriate for typesetting fractions within a piece of text.
