This calculator adds two fractions. When fractions have different denominators, firstly convert all fractions to common denominator. Find Least Common Denominator (LCD) or simple multiply all denominators to find common denominator. When all denominators are same, simply add the numerators and place the result over the common denominator. Then simplify the result to the lowest terms or a mixed number.

Spelled result in words is eleven twelfths.

How do we solve fractions step by step?

Add: 1/2 + 5/12 = 1 · 6/2 · 6 + 5/12 = 6/12 + 5/12 = 6 + 5/12 = 11/12
For adding, subtracting, and comparing fractions, it is suitable to adjust both fractions to a common (equal, identical) denominator. The common denominator you can calculate as the least common multiple of both denominators - LCM(2, 12) = 12. In practice, it is enough to find the common denominator (not necessarily the lowest) by multiplying the denominators: 2 × 12 = 24. In the following intermediate step, it cannot further simplify the fraction result by canceling.
In other words - one half plus five twelfths is eleven twelfths.

Fractions - use a forward slash to divide the numerator by the denominator, i.e., for five-hundredths, enter 5/100. If you use mixed numbers, leave a space between the whole and fraction parts.

Mixed numerals (mixed numbers or fractions) keep one space between the integer and

fraction and use a forward slash to input fractions i.e., 1 2/3 . An example of a negative mixed fraction: -5 1/2.
Because slash is both signs for fraction line and division, use a colon (:) as the operator of division fractions i.e., 1/2 : 1/3.
Decimals (decimal numbers) enter with a decimal point . and they are automatically converted to fractions - i.e. 1.45.

The calculator follows well-known rules for the order of operations. The most common mnemonics for remembering this order of operations are:
PEMDAS - Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication, Division, Addition, Subtraction.
BEDMAS - Brackets, Exponents, Division, Multiplication, Addition, Subtraction
BODMAS - Brackets, Of or Order, Division, Multiplication, Addition, Subtraction.
GEMDAS - Grouping Symbols - brackets (){}, Exponents, Multiplication, Division, Addition, Subtraction.
MDAS - Multiplication and Division have the same precedence over Addition and Subtraction. The MDAS rule is the order of operations part of the PEMDAS rule.
Be careful; always do multiplication and division before addition and subtraction. Some operators (+ and -) and (* and /) has the same priority and then must evaluate from left to right.

This calculator performs basic and advanced fraction operations, expressions with fractions combined with integers, decimals, and mixed numbers. It also shows detailed step-by-step information about the fraction calculation procedure. The calculator helps in finding value from multiple fractions operations. Solve problems with two, three, or more fractions and numbers in one expression.

Spelled result in words is three.

How do we solve fractions step by step?

Multiple: 1/4 * 12 = 1 · 12/4 · 1 = 12/4 = 3 · 4/1 · 4 = 3
Multiply both numerators and denominators. Result fraction keep to lowest possible denominator GCD(12, 4) = 4. In the following intermediate step, cancel by a common factor of 4 gives 3/1.
In other words - one quarter multiplied by twelve is three.

Mixed numerals (mixed numbers or fractions) keep one space between the integer and
