Decimals may be rounded to eight places; rupee amounts to two.
A denominator tells you how many equal pieces make up a whole. Before adding 1/2 and 1/4, write 1/2 as 2/4. Now both fractions count quarters: 2/4 + 1/4 = 3/4.
a/b + c/d = (a × d + c × b) / (b × d)
Multiplication works differently: multiply the numerators, then the denominators. To divide, multiply by the reciprocal of the second fraction. Results are reduced by dividing the numerator and denominator by their greatest common divisor.
A fraction means division. Division by zero has no defined finite answer, so both denominators must be nonzero.
Yes. Put a minus sign in the numerator or denominator. The answer keeps any minus sign in the numerator and uses a positive denominator.
A fraction is simplified when the numerator and denominator have no common factor greater than 1. For example, 6/8 simplifies to 3/4.
