  Base StructureDefinition for Ratio Type: A relationship of two Quantity values - expressed
   as a numerator and a denominator.
  
  
  
    
    
    
  
  
    
    
    
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
    
      
        
      
      
        
      
      
      
      
      The Ratio datatype should only be used to express a relationship of two numbers if the
       relationship cannot be suitably expressed using a Quantity and a common unit.  Where the
       denominator value is known to be fixed to &quot;1&quot;, Quantity should be used instead
       of Ratio.
      
      
      
        
        
        
      
      
      
        
        
        
        
        
        
      
      
        
        
        Numerator and denominator SHALL both be present, or both are absent. If both are absent,
         there SHALL be some extension present
