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}}

Template:Zero width spaceA ^B⁄_C (integer, numerator and denominator)

{{fraction|B|C}}

Template:Zero width space^B⁄_C (numerator and denominator)

{{fraction|C}}

Template:Zero width space¹⁄_C (denominator only)

{{fraction}}

Template:Zero width space⁄ (fraction slash only)

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.

Template parameters

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
