Template:Fraction/doc

This template builds an alternative form of common fractions. The template takes one, two, or three parameters: the optional integer (may be signed), the optional numerator and the required denominator; in this order.

Please do not itute it. This template should not be used in science or mathematical articles, per MOS:FRAC and MOS:MATH; use sfrac instead. To allow numerical sorting of a column containing fractions, use  where   is a rounded decimal equivalent. See Help:Sorting for more information and options. Inside citation templates, use the cleaner citefrac.


 * : $A B⁄C$ (integer, numerator and denominator)
 * : $A B⁄C$ (numerator and denominator)
 * : $A⁄B$ (denominator only)
 * : 1/undefined (fraction slash only)

Examples

 * Numbers: $A⁄B$ $1⁄A$ $1⁄A$ $1⁄2$ $1⁄3$ $2⁄3$ $1⁄4$ $3⁄4$ $1⁄5$ $2⁄5$ $3⁄5$ $4⁄5$ $1⁄6$ $5⁄6$ $1⁄7$ $2⁄7$ $3⁄7$ $4⁄7$ $5⁄7$ $6⁄7$ $1⁄8$ $3⁄8$ $5⁄8$ $7⁄8$ $1⁄16$ $3⁄16$ $5⁄16$ $7⁄16$ $9⁄16$
 * Units: $11⁄16$ $13⁄16$ $15⁄16$ $m⁄s$ $km⁄h$

Parameters
{ "description": "A template for displaying common fractions of the form int+num/den nicely. It supports 0–3 anonymous parameters with positional meaning.", "params": { "1": { "label": "leftmost part", "description": "Denominator if only parameter supplied. Numerator if 2 parameters supplied. Integer if 3 parameters supplied. If no parameter is specified the template will render a fraction slash only.", "type": "string/line", "required": false }, "2": { "label": "middle-right part", "description": "Denominator if 2 parameters supplied. Numerator if 3 parameters supplied.", "inherits": "1" }, "3": { "label": "rightmost part", "description": "Denominator, always.", "inherits": "1" } }}
