Fraction Calculations

Note that the input method for fractions depends on the current Input/Output setting on the setup menu.


Improper Fraction Mixed Fraction
MathI/MathO
MathI/DecimalO
73
(73 or 73 or 73)
2 13
(() 213 or () 213)
LineI/LineO
LineI/DecimalO

(73)

(213)

Note

Under initial default settings, fractions are displayed as improper fractions.

Mixing fractions and decimal values in a calculation while something other than MathI/MathO is selected will cause the result to be displayed as a decimal value.

Fractions in calculation results are displayed after being reduced to their lowest terms.


Example 1: 23 + 12 = 76


(MathI/MathO)

  • 2312

(LineI/LineO)

  • 2312

Example 2: 3 14 + 1 23 = 4 1112 (Fraction Result: ab/c)


(MathI/MathO)

  • () 314
  • () 123

(LineI/LineO)

  • 314123

Example 3: 4 - 3 12 = 12 (Fraction Result: ab/c)


(MathI/MathO)

  • 4() 312

(LineI/LineO)

  • 4312

Note

If the total number of digits used for a mixed fraction (including integer, numerator, denominator, and separator symbols) is greater than 10, the value is automatically displayed in decimal format.

The result of a calculation that involves both fraction and decimal values is displayed in decimal format.

Switching between Improper Fraction and Mixed Fraction Format

Pressing the () key toggles the display fraction between mixed fraction and improper fraction format.
