Re:Can 1/3 and 1/3 = 2/6? It seemed so by httpsterio on Tuesday May 26, 2020 @08:55PM (#23318279)
If you are omitting the units, it would be a fair assumption that the values all belong to the same unit, unless stated otherwise. You're representing the fractions related to each other and you can't do that if the fractions are of two separate things.

I could say that 1+1 = 2 or 1+1 = 10 but it wouldn't be right to say that 1+1=2 && 1+1=10 because while both are true if we're talking about decimals and binary, we're omitting the units and everything loses its' meaning if we do that.
