As a time signature 1/4 has no sense, but 3/4 and 6/8 are different
things. In the standard musical notation both numbers are written one
above the other, and no "division" line is used. Note that they just
*look* like a fraction when written in text form, like here, because
it's not easy to write one above the other.
3/4 is read as "three by four", not "three quarters" -at least in my
country- so there is even less confussion.
