Template:Documentation subpage Template:Uses TemplateStyles 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 subst:itute it.

{{fraction|A|B|C}}
A+BC (integer, numerator and denominator)
{{fraction|B|C}}
BC (numerator and denominator)
{{fraction|C}}
1C (denominator only)
{{fraction}}
(fraction slash only)

Notes

  • {{fraction}} or &frasl; may be used to print out the fraction slash glyph " ⁄ ".
  • For mixed fractions, in some contexts (like link targets) a "+" is generated between the whole number part and fraction part. If this is not desirable, put the whole number part outside the template, and put a non-breaking space between when the spacing is desirable. For example: "33&nbsp;{{frac|1|3}}".

Parameters

A template for displaying common fractions of the form int+num/den nicely. It supports 0–3 anonymous parameters with positional meaning.

Template parameters

ParameterDescriptionTypeStatus
leftmost part1

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.

Lineoptional
middle-right part2

Denominator if 2 parameters supplied. Numerator if 3 parameters supplied.

Lineoptional
rightmost part3

Denominator, always.
