About Fraction Calculator

Fraction Calculator adds, subtracts, multiplies, and divides two fractions and presents a simplified result. Students searching "fraction calculator", "add fractions", or "multiply fractions online" need exact rational answers rather than messy decimals.

Enter both fractions, select +, -, x, or /, and calculate. Results are reduced when possible so you see a standard simplified form. Denominators must be non-zero.

Mixed numbers may need converting to improper fractions first if the form expects simple numerator/denominator pairs. Show school working when required - use this to check.
