Rules for expressions with fractions:

Fractions - use the slash “/” between the numerator and denominator, i.e. for five-hundredths enter 5/100. If you are using mixed numbers be sure to leave a single space between the whole number and fraction part.

The slash separates the numerator (number above a fraction line) and denominator (number below).

Mixed numerals (mixed fractions or mixed numbers) write as non-zero integer separated by one space and fraction i.e., 1 2/3 (having the same sign). An example of a negative mixed fraction: -5 1/2.

Because slash is both signs for fraction line and division, we recommended use colon (:) as operator of division fractions i.e., 1/2 : 3.

Decimals (decimal numbers) enter with a decimal point . and they are automatically converted to fractions - i.e. 1.45.

Colon : and slash / is the symbol of division. Can be used to divide mixed numbers 1 2/3 : 4 3/8 or can be used for write complex fractions i.e. 1/2 : 1/3.

An asterisk * or × is the symbol for multiplication.

Plus + is addition, minus sign - is subtraction and ()[] is mathematical parentheses.

The exponentiation/power symbol is ^ - for example: (7/8-4/5)^2 = (7/8-4/5)2

Calculator follows well-known rules for order of operations. Most common mnemonics for remembering this order of operations are:

PEMDAS - Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication, Division, Addition, Subtraction.

BEDMAS - Brackets, Exponents, Division, Multiplication, Addition, Subtraction

BODMAS - Brackets, Of or Order, Division, Multiplication, Addition, Subtraction.

GEMDAS - Grouping Symbols - brackets (){}, Exponents, Multiplication, Division, Addition, Subtraction.

Be careful, always do multiplication and division before addition and subtraction. Some operators (+ and -) and (* and /) has the same priority and then must evaluate from left to right.
