I'm trying to get a list of tuples to be a float, a numerator, and a
denominator for all the fractions: halves, thirds, fourths etc up to
ninths. 1/2 returns the same float as 2/4, 3/6, 4/8. I would like to keep
only the 1/2. When I try (line 18) to "pop" from the list I get a "TypeError:
integer
Why not sorting the items and throw out all multiples until you reach
the fixed length ?

I have a list which comprises of simple random arithmetic problems for
teachers to give to their pupils. This list must be a set length (if
the teacher asks for 10 questions, they should get 10 questions), but
should not have any duplicates.
I've seen the use of sets, but this reduces the size of
