Template:Frac/doc: Difference between revisions

Latest revision as of 13:19, 3 September 2020

This is a documentation subpage for Template:Frac.
It may contain usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page.

This template should not be substituted.

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 not be used in science or mathematical articles, per MOS:FRAC and MOS:MATH#Fractions; use {{sfrac}} instead. To allow numerical sorting of a column containing fractions, use {{sortfrac}} instead. It is a combination of this template and {{sort}}.

{{frac|A|B|C}}: A ^B⁄_C (integer, numerator and denominator)
{{frac|A|B}}: ^A⁄_B (numerator and denominator)
{{frac|A}}: ¹⁄_A (denominator only)
{{frac}}: ⁄ (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

{{frac}} or &frasl; may be used to print out the fraction slash glyph " ⁄ ".

Parameters

This is the TemplateData for this template used by TemplateWizard, VisualEditor and other tools. See a monthly parameter usage report for this template in articles based on this TemplateData.

TemplateData for Frac

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

Wikipedia:Rendering math
{{1/2}} (¹⁄₂), {{1/3}}, {{2/3}}, {{1/4}}, {{3/4}} – shorthands that use this template
{{sfrac}} (1/2) – displays common fractions using a vinculum (horizontal line), for scientific and mathematical text
{{su}} (^superscript
_subscript text) – to align both b=subscript & p=superscript
{{sub}} (_subscript text) – to show a subscript
{{sup}} (^superscript text) – to show a superscript
Help:Displaying a formula#Fractions, matrices, multilines
Help:Convert#Fractions
Number Forms, a Unicode block consisting primarily of vulgar fractions
OpenType fonts feature frac, CSS font-variant-numeric:diagonal-fractions
Expression error: Unexpected < operator.
