About This Calculator

This calculator performs basic arithmetic on two fractions — addition, subtraction, multiplication, or division — and simplifies the result to its lowest terms, also showing the decimal equivalent.

How This Is Calculated

a/b + c/d = (ad + bc) / bd (then simplified)

1/2 + 1/3 = 5/6 ≈ 0.8333

Assumptions

  • Results are automatically simplified to lowest terms using the greatest common divisor.

Frequently Asked Questions

The calculator finds the greatest common divisor (GCD) of the numerator and denominator, then divides both by it — reducing the fraction to its simplest equivalent form.
