Mixed Number Calculator

Operations on mixed numbers with automatic simplification.

Introduction

Mixed Number Calculator — Operations on mixed numbers with automatic simplification. Enter Whole 1, Numerator 1, Denominator 1, Operation, Whole 2, Numerator 2, Denominator 2 to get an instant, accurate result.

Formula

A mixed number W N/D is converted to an improper fraction (W×D+N)/D, the operation is performed as with any fraction, and the result is converted back to whole + remainder form.

Step-by-step

  1. Enter the Whole 1.
  2. Enter the Numerator 1.
  3. Enter the Denominator 1.
  4. Enter the Operation.
  5. Enter the Whole 2.
  6. Enter the Numerator 2.
  7. Enter the Denominator 2.
  8. Click Calculate to see your result instantly.

Real-world example

Example: With Whole 1 = 1, Numerator 1 = 1, Denominator 1 = 2, Operation = +, Whole 2 = 2, Numerator 2 = 1, Denominator 2 = 3, the Mixed Number Calculator gives Whole: 3, Numerator: 5, Denominator: 6.
