How this calculator works
This calculator adds, subtracts, multiplies, and divides fractions, then simplifies the result. Enter two fractions and select an operation to see the simplified result in fraction and decimal form. Use it for math problems, recipe scaling, and construction measurements. The key inputs are two fractions and the operation. The output is the simplified fraction and decimal value. Real-world applications include education, cooking, carpentry, and everyday fraction math. The calculator applies fraction arithmetic, then simplifies the result using the greatest common divisor. The denominator cannot be zero because division by zero is undefined. This calculator expects simple fractions, so convert mixed numbers to improper fractions before entering them. The result is reduced when possible and also shown as a decimal for convenience.
