🍕 Fraction Calculator

Fraction homework, or a recipe that needs adjusting? Enter two fractions, choose the operation, and get the exact simplified answer — as a fraction, a mixed number and a decimal.

How to use the Fraction Calculator

  1. Enter the first fraction (numerator over denominator).
  2. Choose the operation: add, subtract, multiply or divide.
  3. Enter the second fraction and press Calculate.
Example: 1/2 + 1/3 = 5/6, which as a decimal is 0.8333.

Frequently Asked Questions

How is the answer simplified?

The result's numerator and denominator are divided by their greatest common divisor, so 6/12 is shown as 1/2.

What is a mixed number?

A whole number plus a proper fraction — for example 5/4 is written as 1 1/4. Mixed numbers are easier to picture for measurements and cooking.

Can I enter decimals like 0.5?

Enter them as fractions instead: 0.5 is 1/2, 0.25 is 1/4 and 0.75 is 3/4. Numerators and denominators here must be whole numbers.
