hello,
There are some problems with the printed form of certain AxiomElements:
=======================================
sage:a = axiom('2+7')
sage:a/7
-
7
Type: Fraction Integer
---------------------------------------
But, surprisingly, not:
=======================================
sage: axiom('2+7')/7
9
-
7
Type: Fraction Integer
---------------------------------------
Same comment for the following:
=======================================
sage:a = axiom('2+7/x')
sage:a/9
------
9x
Type: Fraction Polynomial Integer
sage: a = axiom('sqrt(x)')
sage: a/7
\|x
----
7
---------------------------------------
but note that these expressions are sometimes correctly printed if you
hit <enter> (without input) and/or print 'a' several times (to reproduce
this you'll need to play with <enter> and 'a'):
================================================================
sage: a = axiom('2+7/x')
sage: a/9
------
9x
Type: Fraction Polynomial Integer
sage: a # print a
2x + 7
------
9x
Type: Fraction Polynomial Integer
sage: a/9
2x + 7
------
9x
Type: Fraction Polynomial Integer
------------------------------------------------------------------
A workaround, on my configuration, is to change the Axiom line length of
output. To change it you must issue ')set message output x' where x is
the length. For me it seems to work with a length of 120 (which is the
width of my terminal, but I don't think it's related). I don't know if
and how it is possible to issue this command in SAGE so it can be added
to ~/.axiom.input (Axiom reads it when it starts).

PS: I'm reporting this bug on the SAGE web site.
