Fractions

"Fractions" in chapter 1 introduces the basics about entering, displaying, and calculating with fractions:

To enter a fraction, press twice — after the integer part, and between the

numerator and denominator. To enter 2 3/8, press 2 3 8. To enter 5/8, press 5 8 or 5 8.

To turn Fraction–display mode on and off, press { . When you turn off Fraction–display mode, the display goes back to the previous display format. (FIX, SCI, ENG, and ALL also turn off Fraction–display mode.)

Functions work the same with fractions as with decimal numbers — except for RND, which is discussed later in this chapter.

This chapter gives more information about using and displaying fractions.

Entering Fractions

You can type almost any number as a fraction on the keyboard — including an improper fraction (where the numerator is larger than the denominator). However, the calculator displays ¤if you disregard these two restrictions:

The integer and numerator must not contain more than 12 digits total.

The denominator must not contain more than 4 digits.

Example:

Keys:Display:Description:

{
1.5	+
1 3 4	+
{	)
{	+

Turns on Fraction–display mode. Enters 1.5; shown as a fraction. Enters 1 3/4.

Displays x as a decimal number. Displays x as a fraction.
