How Fraction Simplification works
The Fraction Simplifier reduces fractions to their lowest terms by finding the greatest common divisor (GCD) of the numerator and denominator. It also converts between improper fractions and mixed numbers, and can perform basic fraction arithmetic.
Example

Avoid mistakes
Common mistakes
A few things that can lead to misleading results or poor decisions.
To simplify fractions manually, find the GCD of the numerator and denominator (using the Euclidean algorithm), then divide both by it. This tool automates that process for you.
