How to Use the Fraction Calculator
Enter two fractions (or mixed numbers) and select the operation — add, subtract, multiply, or divide — and the calculator shows the result, automatically simplified to lowest terms and, if applicable, converted to a mixed number.
The Fraction Calculator handles all four basic operations, including simplification — here's what to enter.
Entering fractions and mixed numbers
Enter each fraction as a numerator and denominator, or as a mixed number (a whole number plus a fraction) if the tool supports that format directly — the calculator handles the conversion and calculation regardless of which format the inputs use.
Choosing an operation and reading the result
Select addition, subtraction, multiplication, or division, and the calculator applies the correct method for that specific operation (common denominators for addition/subtraction, straightforward multiplication of numerators and denominators for multiplication, and reciprocal multiplication for division), returning a fully simplified result.
