Fraction Calculations

How you should input fractions depends on the input/output format that is currently selected.

Default settings display fractions as improper fractions.

Fraction calculation results are always reduced before being displayed.

Mixed fraction input is possible only when “a b/c” is specified for the fraction format.

In MATH mode, press () to input mixed fractions.

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.
