i. Valid Inputs
Depending on the type of calculator you choose (using the the drop-downs), you'll will need to enter a fraction, a decimal, or a percentage value. Here are the valid inputs for each of those types.
Fractions — When providing an input in the "fraction" field, you may enter a number in one of the following formats.
- Integers → 2, 0, −4
- Fractions → 2/3, −1/5
- Mixed numbers → 51/4
Percentage — In addition to the inputs accepted for a "fraction", you can also enter a decimal number when providing a "percentage" input. For example, 12.75.
Decimals — If your input is a terminating decimal, enter the whole thing in the first field.
For recurring decimals, enter everything except the recurring part into the first field. And then, enter the recurring digits into the second field.
For example, if you had to enter 4.1572, you'd enter 4.15 in the first input box and 72 in the second.
ii. Example
If you would like to see an example of the calculator's working, just click the "example" button.
iii. Solutions
As mentioned earlier, the calculator won't just tell you the answer but also the steps you can follow to do the calculation yourself. The "show/hide solution" button would be available to you after the calculator has processed your input.
iv. Share
