It’s my understanding that I should be looking for a 9/6 machine; 8/5 if it’s progressive. As I was looking for a machine today I saw a 48/30 and a 24/10 but nothing like a 9/6. Is there someway that I could be computing these?

I think you are miscalculating. To get the best payouts, look at the Full House/Flush. In your example, you quote the payouts as 48/30 and 24/10. Converted to lowest common denominator, that would be 24/15 (for 48/30) and 12/5 (for 24/10). Compared to 9/6, give both the same denominator. That would be 48/30 compared to 45/30 (for 9/6). Your 48/30 payout, if it is Full House/Flush, is a much better game than 9/6.
