Characterizations of efficiency and proper efficiency are given for classes of multiple objective fractional optimization problems. These results are then applied to the case of multiple objective fractional linear problems. A dual problem is given for the multiple objective fractional problem and it is shown that for a properly efficient primal solution the dual solution is also properly efficient.
