As with all other tuplets, it's just the time of the notes that it
replaces.  Consider

   \times 2/3 { c c c } :  3 notes take time of 2; common triplet
   \times 4/3 { c c c } :  3 notes take time of 4; unusual triplet

Likewise, you have

   \times 3/2 { c c }  :  2 notes take time of 3; `common' tuplet
