About the Fraction Calculator

A fraction represents part of a whole. This calculator keeps the arithmetic exact, simplifies every result, and explains the method step by step.

Adding and subtracting fractions

The calculator finds a common denominator, creates equivalent fractions, combines the numerators, and reduces the result.

Multiplying and dividing fractions

Multiply numerators and denominators directly. For division, multiply the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second.

Mixed numbers

Mixed numbers are converted to improper fractions first. A negative mixed number such as −2 ¾ is treated as the negative value of the entire number.

Exact large-number support

Numerators and denominators use JavaScript BigInt, allowing exact calculations with huge integers.
