This template is used on many pages. To avoid large-scale disruption and unnecessary server load, any changes to this template should first be tested in its /sandbox or /testcases subpages or in your own user subpage. The tested changes can then be added to this page in one single edit. Please consider discussing any changes on the talk page before implementing them. |
This template should not be substituted. |
This template should not be used in science or mathematical articles, use {{Sfrac }} instead. |

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. This template should also not be used in certain situations; see MOS:FRAC and MOS:MATH#Fractions § Notes. For science or mathematical articles, use {{Sfrac }} instead. To allow numerical sorting of a column containing fractions, use data-sort-value="X.YYY"
where X.YYY
is a rounded decimal equivalent. See Help:Sorting for more information and options. Inside citation templates, use the cleaner {{Citefrac }}.
{{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
This is the TemplateData documentation for this template used by VisualEditor and other tools.
Fraction
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 |
