A:
If you actually want to preserve the numerator and denominator, you are likely best off using a matrix filled with Pair
objects, each containing a pair of int
s representing the numerator and denominator, respectively. Implementation details will, of course, depend on the language.

Yes, that or two matrices

In general, I would assert that it is better to use one matrix containing a `Pair`, if possible, as it allows you to create your functions based on `Pair`s (which is applicable in this case, because the data in the `Pair` really represents one value).
