1. What is the Fraction Calculator With 3 Slots?

This calculator performs operations with three fractions in sequence. You can chain two operations together (like a/b + c/d × e/f) and get the result as a simplified fraction and decimal.

2. How Does the Calculator Work?

The calculator performs operations in the order you specify:

\[ \frac{a}{b} \text{ op1 } \frac{c}{d} \text{ op2 } \frac{e}{f} \]

Where:

a, c, e — Numerators (can be any real number)
b, d, f — Denominators (must be non-zero)
op1, op2 — Operations (+, -, ×, ÷)

Explanation: The calculator first performs the operation between the first two fractions, then uses that result to perform the operation with the third fraction.

3. Importance of Fraction Calculations

Details: Fraction operations are fundamental in mathematics, science, engineering, and everyday life. Being able to chain multiple operations helps solve complex problems efficiently.

4. Using the Calculator

Tips: Enter all numerators and denominators (denominators must be non-zero), select your operations, and click Calculate. Results show as simplified fractions with decimal approximations.

5. Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What if I get a zero denominator error?
A: All denominators must be non-zero. The calculator will prevent division by zero.

Q2: How are fractions simplified?
A: Results are simplified by dividing numerator and denominator by their greatest common divisor (GCD).

Q3: Can I use negative numbers?
A: Yes, numerators and denominators can be negative, but denominators cannot be zero.

Q4: What's the precision of the decimal result?
A: Results are rounded to 6 decimal places for display.

Q5: Is the operation order important?
A: Yes, operations are performed left to right. Use parentheses in complex expressions by breaking them into steps.
