They are classes that aim to customize the output from classes in [Numbers],
(specifically, the way to display a {{Fraction}} or {{BigFraction}} object).
The classes provide accessors to the numerator and denominator which can be
used by outside code to display the fraction as it wishes.
Side note: Similar formatting classes in Commons Math are more of a nuisance
than anything, e.g. displaying small numbers as "0" (in exception messages),
because the default is to provide 6 decimal digits, thus discarding
all significant
information.
