What is the Fractions Calculator?
The comprehensive Fractions Calculator is an all-in-one algebra tool capable of adding, subtracting, multiplying, and dividing standard fractions, improper fractions, and mixed numbers.
How It Works (Formulas)
The tool uses dynamic routing. For addition and subtraction, it cross-multiplies to find common denominators. For multiplication, it multiplies straight across. For division, it flips the second fraction and multiplies (Keep-Change-Flip).
$$ \frac{a}{b} \div \frac{c}{d} = \frac{a}{b} \times \frac{d}{c} = \frac{ad}{bc} $$
The Keep-Change-Flip algorithm used for fraction division.
How to Use It
Enter your first fraction or mixed number. Select the mathematical operation (+, -, *, /) you wish to perform from the dropdown. Enter the second fraction. The tool will output the fully simplified answer.
