This calculator will first reduce the improper fraction to lowest terms by dividing numerator and denominator by the greatest common factor (GCF). The GCF of 45 and 10 is 5. The remainder is 1. With 1 as the numerator and 2 as the reduced denominator, the fraction part of the mixed number is 1/2.

Use this fraction calculator for adding, subtracting, multiplying and dividing fractions. Answers are fractions in lowest terms or mixed numbers in reduced form.

Input proper or improper fractions, select the math sign and click Calculate. This is a fraction calculator with steps shown in the solution.

If you have negative fractions insert a minus sign before the numerator. So if one of your fractions is -6/7, insert -6 in the numerator and 7 in the denominator.

Sometimes math problems include the word "of," as in What is 1/3 of 3/8? Of means you should multiply so you need to solve 1/3 × 3/8.

To do math with mixed numbers (whole numbers and fractions) use the Mixed Numbers Calculator.

Math on Fractions with Unlike Denominators

There are 2 cases where you need to know if your fractions have different denominators:

if you are adding fractions

if you are subtracting fractions

How to Add or Subtract Fractions

Find the least common denominator

You can use the LCD Calculator to find the least common denominator for a set of fractions

For your first fraction, find what number you need to multiply the denominator by to result in the least common denominator

Multiply the numerator and denominator of your first fraction by that number

Repeat Steps 3 and 4 for each fraction

For addition equations, add the fraction numerators

For subtraction equations, subtract the fraction numerators

Convert improper fractions to mixed numbers

Reduce the fraction to lowest terms

How to Multiply Fractions

Multiply all numerators together

Multiply all denominators together

Reduce the result to lowest terms

How to Divide Fractions

Rewrite the equation as in "Keep, Change, Flip"

Keep the first fraction

Change the division sign to multiplication

Flip the second fraction by switching the top and bottom numbers

Multiply all numerators together

Multiply all denominators together

Reduce the result to lowest terms

Fraction Formulas

There is a way to add or subtract fractions without finding the least common denominator (LCD). This method involves cross multiplication of the fractions. See the formulas below.Step-by-step explanation:

Geometry math question no Guessing and Please show work
MAXImum [283]

If the point P(x, y) partitions the segment AB in the ratio 1 : 1, then the point P is midpoint of segment AB.

The formula of a midpoint of segment:

A(x_A;\ y_A),\ B(x_B,\ y_B)\\\\P_{AB}\left(\dfrac{x_A+x_B}{2};\ \dfrac{y_A+y_B}{2}\right)

We have:

A(13,\ 1)\to x_A=13,\ y_A=1\\B(-5,\ -3)\to x_B=-5,\ y_B-3\\\\P\left(\dfrac{13+(-5)}{2};\ \dfrac{1+(-3)}{2}\right)\to P\left(\dfrac{8}{2};\ \dfrac{-2}{2}\right)\to P(4,\ -1)

Answer: C. (4, -1)
