If you want to stick mathematically correct and show the fraction as 4:3,
then you could typeset it using 4 8th notes instead of 16th notes, i.e.
\times 3/4 {b8 c d e}
I don't remember from the top of my head what the common typesetting
practice is, but I guess it makes more sense to typeset 16th notes as you
do. As long as you keep the default tupletNumberFormatFunction, which
only prints a "4", I wouldn't have any problems to realize what you mean,
as a musician. However, as we have pointed out, the rhythmical relationship
is really 4:6, so I'm not sure that it would be correct to write a 4:3.
If you still are convinced that you want it, one trick would be to do
\times 3/4 {b16*2 c d e}

Markus and Mats,
Thank you both. it's working.
although now, only thing missing for me is the fraction shows " 4:6 "
when I think it's very common practice to write " 4:3 "
i want to tell the musicians that this is "four against three"

\repeat volta 2 { \mark \default
\set tupletNumberFormatFunction = #fraction-tuplet-formatter
\times 6/4 {b16 c d e} d8 c b g a4. d,4 | c'4 b8 c d b g a4. a4 |
c8 d e d c b g a4. d,4 | c'4 b8 c d b g a4. a4 } \break
