WHAT THIS TOOL DOES

P624

DECIMAL INPUT TO SIMPLIFIED FRACTION OUTPUT

This calculator converts a typed decimal into a simplified fraction.

It writes the decimal over 10, 100, 1000 or another power of ten.

Then it divides the numerator and denominator by the highest common factor.

Use it for homework, GCSE revision, KS2 arithmetic and quick checks.
