Taking a moment to verify your inputs will ensure the most accurate results.
For the best results when using the Fraction Calculator, follow these expert tips:
Find common denominator, then add numerators. Example: 1/3 + 2/5 = 5/15 + 6/15 = 11/15.
Divide numerator and denominator by their greatest common divisor.
Multiply the numerators together and the denominators together. Example: 1/3 x 2/5 = 2/15.
Flip the second fraction (reciprocal) and multiply. Example: 1/3 / 2/5 = 1/3 x 5/2 = 5/6.
An improper fraction has a numerator larger than its denominator, like 7/4. It can be converted to a mixed number: 1 and 3/4.
Divide the numerator by the denominator. Example: 3/4 = 3 / 4 = 0.75.
Fractions that represent the same value, like 1/2, 2/4, 4/8. Multiply or divide the numerator and denominator by the same number to find equivalents.
Convert to a common denominator or cross-multiply. The larger numerator after conversion indicates the larger fraction.
