Fraction calculator



This online calculator finds the cube of a fraction. Simply compute the cube of the numerator and place it over the cube of the denominator. Then simplify the result to the lowest terms or a mixed number.

The result:

1/4^3 = 1/64 = 0.015625

Spelled result in words is one sixty-fourth.

How do we solve fractions step by step?

  1. Exponentiation: 1/4 ^ 3 = 13/43 = 1/64

    In other words - one quarter raised to the power of cubed is one sixty-fourth.

Rules for expressions with fractions:

Fractions - use a forward slash to divide the numerator by the denominator, i.e., for five-hundredths, enter 5/100. If you use mixed numbers, leave a space between the whole and fraction parts.

Mixed numerals (mixed numbers or fractions) keep one space between the integer and
fraction and use a forward slash to input fractions i.e., 1 2/3 . An example of a negative mixed fraction: -5 1/2.
Because slash is both sign for fraction line and division, use a colon (:) as the operator of division fractions i.e., 1/2 : 1/3.
Decimals (decimal numbers) enter with a decimal point . and they are automatically converted to fractions - i.e. 1.45.
