Using the latest version of 365, two separate columns might be
= TEXTBEFORE(TEXT(values,"????/????"),"/")
= TEXTAFTER(TEXT(values,"????/????"),"/")or to combine the two columns into a single 2D array
= LET(
    fraction,    TEXT(values,"????/????"),
    numerator,   TEXTBEFORE(fraction,"/"),
    denominator, TEXTAFTER(fraction,"/"),
    CHOOSE({1,2},numerator,denominator)
  )The original values were numbers rather than text and the number format uses improper fractions.
