Each unit fraction is a real number, but not all real numbers are unit fractions... Fair enough? ;^)

 Well, let's define the notion of an /unit fraction/. :-)
       x is a /unit fraction/, iff there's a natural number n such that x = 1/n.
 Clearly, An e IN: 1/n e IR, on the other hand, I doubt that, say, 2/3 (which is an element in IR) is a unit fraction. :-P

2/3 is not a unit fraction. However, its fun that it can be comprised of a sum of unit fractions, say:
1/3 + 1/3 = 2/3
1/3 + 1/6 + 1/12 + 1/12 = 2/3
ect, ect...
1/3 + 1/6 + 1/12 + 1/24 + 1/24 = 2/3

Fair enough?
