Probably the first appearance of the 3-fractions puzzle in the constraints literature is [schulte2004finite].

The following paper shows how a basic model of the 3-fractions puzzle can be improved automatically [frisch2001extensions].

Using hand-reformulation, the following paper discusses how different using symmetry-breaking schemes on the 3-fractions puzzle, followed by the derivation of implied constraints, can lead to models of varying quality [frisch2004symmetry].
