If a value is expressed in the form of a ratio then the total number of parts is some multiple of the denominator of the fraction.

For example, if there is a Pizza with 6 slices, then 4 slices out of that would represent 2/3 of the pizza. There is nothing in that number that tells you that there were 6 slices.
