This is a literal translation from Turkish. How would a native English speaker mean it?
In case the value of a man is expressed in fractions, the numerator symbolizes his real personality and the denominator does what he thinks he is; as the denominator gets bigger the value of the fraction gets smaller.
I thought it would be weird to use 'symbolizes' again and I used 'does'.

What do you mean by "does what he thinks he is?" Do you mean his actions?
If the value of a man is akinned to a fraction, the numerator would represent a man's innate character and the denominator, the man's conscious actions. As the denominator increases and the numerator decreases, the value of the fraction diminishes.
