About this tool

The fraction calculator handles the four basic operations and shows the working:

  • Four operations: add, subtract, multiply and divide
  • Steps shown: addition and subtraction show the common denominator, multiplication and division show the intermediate products, and the final reduction is displayed
  • Lowest terms: every result is reduced automatically
  • Decimal view: the same result is also given as a decimal and a percentage

Fraction rules

  • Addition: a/b + c/d = (ad+bc)/(bd), then reduce
  • Subtraction: a/b - c/d = (ad-bc)/(bd), then reduce
  • Multiplication: a/b times c/d = (ac)/(bd), then reduce
  • Division: a/b divided by c/d = (ad)/(bc), then reduce

When to use it

  • Help with school fraction homework
  • Check a hand calculation in seconds
  • Exact fraction arithmetic in engineering work
