A fraction representing the way of dividing a whole number by a whole number. Fraction is a combination of numerator and denominator. Top number is called as numerator and the bottom number is called  as denominator. When numerator is smaller than denominator than its called proper fraction and in reverse case it's called improper fraction.

Problems on Fraction Calculator

1. $\frac{1}{2}+\frac{3}{2}$

Step 1 :

Step 1: common denominator = 2
Step 2: $\frac{(1+3)}{2}$ = $\frac{4}{2}$
Step 3: $\frac{4}{2}$ = 2

$\frac{1}{2}+\frac{3}{2}$ = 2

2. $\frac{5}{3}-\frac{1}{3}$

Step 1 :

Step 1: common denominator = 3
Step 2: $\frac{(5-1)}{3}$ = $\frac{4}{3}$
Step 3: $\frac{4}{3}$

$\frac{5}{3}-\frac{1}{3}$ = $\frac{4}{3}$

3. $\frac{3}{2} \times \frac{5}{7}$

Step 1 :

Step 1: numerator $(3 \times 5)$ = 15
Step 2: denominator $(2 \times 7)$ = 14
Step 3: $\frac{15}{14}$

$\frac{3}{2} \times \frac{5}{7}$ = $\frac{15}{14}$

4. $\frac{\frac{4}{3}}{\frac{6}{5}}$

Step 1 :

Step 1: reciprocal of the second fraction $\frac{4}{3} \times \frac{5}{6}$
Step 2: numerator $(4 \times 5)$ = 20
Step 3: denominator $(3 \times 6)$ = 18
Step 4: $\frac{20}{18}$ = $\frac{10}{9}$

$\frac{\frac{4}{3}}{\frac{6}{5}}$ = $\frac{10}{9}$
