`Fractions("0.17").limit_denominator()` and
`Fractions("0.17").limit_denominator(n)`
for n > 28 do not give 1/6. So, I'd have to guess at n until I get 1/6.
Instead, I'd like to have the digits actually presented "0.17" determine the
interval [0.165, 0.175) which then determines the fraction.
In particular, "0.170" would give a different answer ... a fraction within
[0.1695, 0.1705).
