FAQs

Which fraction formats can I enter?

Enter whole numbers, simple fractions such as 3/4, or mixed numbers such as 2 1/3.

How are fraction results simplified?

The numerator and denominator are divided by their exact greatest common divisor after every operation.

Can I convert decimals and fractions?

Yes. Convert a finite decimal with up to 12 decimal places or display a fraction as a decimal.

How are negative mixed numbers handled?

A leading negative sign applies to the complete mixed number, so -2 1/3 becomes -7/3.

Is this the same as the inch-fraction converter?

No. This tool performs general fraction arithmetic, while the inch converter focuses on measurement formats and rounding.
