If there is a requirement for inputting fractions on the user, via the rule fractionNumbers, then Numbas is very kind to the user by displaying any decimal input by the user as a fraction where possible e.g. user input of 0.5 is dynamically displayed as 1/2 in the input box. This should be displayed as a decimal to reinforce the stern message that comes up asking for the input of fractions - otherwise the user may get confused!
