can't perform rational arithmetic but rather that rational arithmetic is not yet
implemented for XPath.
XPath does not have an atomic data type that is
capable of representing the value 1/3 accurately. You could of course do it all
using extension functions, but then it wouldn't really be XPath, just XPath
calling out to something else.
