Template documentation
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+B⁄C (integer, numerator and denominator)
{{fraction|B|C}}- B⁄C (numerator and denominator)
{{fraction|C}}- 1⁄C (denominator only)
{{fraction}}- ⁄ (fraction slash only)
Examples
- Numbers
- 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 11⁄16 13⁄16 15⁄16
- Units
- m⁄s km⁄h kg·m⁄s2 1⁄s Mbit⁄s
Notes
{{fraction}}or⁄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 {{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.
| Parameter | Description | Type | Status | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| leftmost part | 1 | 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. | Line | optional |
| middle-right part | 2 | Denominator if 2 parameters supplied. Numerator if 3 parameters supplied. | Line | optional |
| rightmost part | 3 | Denominator, always. | Line | optional |
