Rules for expressions with fractions:

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

Mixed numerals (mixed numbers or fractions) keep one space between the integer and
fraction and use a forwards slash to input fractions i.e., ane 2/three . An example of a negative mixed fraction: -5 1/two.
Because slash is both signs for fraction line and division, use a colon (:) as the operator of division fractions i.east., one/2 : 1/3.
Decimals (decimal numbers) enter with a decimal point . and they are automatically converted to fractions - i.east. 1.45.

Math Symbols


Symbol Symbol proper noun Symbol Pregnant Example
+ plus sign addition 1/2 + one/3
- minus sign subtraction 1 1/ii - two/3
* asterisk multiplication 2/3 * 3/4
× times sign multiplication 2/3 × 5/6
: division sign division 1/ii : 3
/ sectionalisation slash partitioning ane/three / 5
: colon complex fraction 1/2 : ane/iii
^ caret exponentiation / power ane/4^3
() parentheses calculate expression inside first -iii/5 - (-1/4)

The calculator follows well-known rules for the order of operations. The virtually common mnemonics for remembering this gild of operations are:
PEMDAS - Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication, Division, Addition, Subtraction.
BEDMAS - Brackets, Exponents, Division, Multiplication, Add-on, Subtraction
BODMAS - Brackets, Of or Club, Division, Multiplication, Addition, Subtraction.
GEMDAS - Grouping Symbols - brackets (){}, Exponents, Multiplication, Sectionalisation, Addition, Subtraction.
MDAS - Multiplication and Segmentation have the same precedence over Addition and Subtraction. The MDAS dominion is the club of operations part of the PEMDAS dominion.
Be conscientious; always practice multiplication and division before addition and subtraction. Some operators (+ and -) and (* and /) have the aforementioned priority and must evaluate from left to right.
