Fraction solver is a calculator for fractions that can perform following arithmetic operations.

  • Adding fractions
  • Subtracting fractions
  • Multiplying fractions
  • Dividing fractions

Let’s go through some important issues such as how do you subtract fractions without using subtracting fractions calculator, how to calculate fractions, and fraction definition.

What is a fraction?

A fraction is a numerical quantity that is not a whole number (e.g., 1/2, 0.5). It is a number written with the bottom part (the denominator) telling you how many parts the whole is divided into, and the top part (the numerator) telling how many you have.

A fraction can be expressed as:
2/3 ---> Numerator/Denominator

Numerator = Top portion of a fraction.
Denominator = Bottom portion of a fraction

For example: In 2/3, the numerator is 2, the top number. The denominator is the 3, the bottom number. The add fractions calculator can perform basic arithmetic operation on given fractions.

How to add/subtract fractions?

Adding and subtracting fractions is much alike and easier especially when you use integer fraction calculator above. Regardless, you should know the manual method to perform fractional operations.

Let’s add two fraction.


Add and subtract the following fractions.

2/3, 4/5

Fraction addition:

Step 1: Place an addition sign in both fractions.

= 2/3 + 4/5

Step 2: Multiply both fractions with a number so that the denominators become same.

In this case, we will multiply first numerator and denominator of first fraction with 3 and second fraction with 5.

= 2×5/3×5 + 4×3/5×3

= 10/15 + 12/15

Now that, denominator of each fraction is same, we can add the numerators by taking denominator common.

Step 3: Add numerators of both fractions.

= 1/15(10+12)

= 22/15

Use our fraction calculator to cross-check the answers.

Fraction subtraction:

Subtracting a fraction is same as adding a fraction. Follow the same method above. The only difference is, you have to subtract the values instead of addition.

How to multiply fractions?

Let’s multiply two fractions.

Fraction multiplication

2/3, 4/5

Step 1: Place a multiplication sign between both fractions.

= 2/3 × 4/5

Step 2: Multiply both numerators to each other and denominators as well.

= 8/15

You can use multiplying fractions calculator anytime to multiply two fractions.

How to divide fractions?

Let’s divide two fractions.

Fraction division:

2/3, 4/5

Step 1: Place a division sign between both fractions.

= 2/3 ÷ 4/5

Step 2: Take the reciprocal of second fraction to replace the division sign with multiplication.

= 2/3 × 5/4

= 10/12

By further simplifying,

= 5/6

Use dividing fractions calculator above to divide two fractions. Moreover, if you want to convert your fraction to number or decimal, use our fraction to decimal calculator.
