Fraction Calculator - Calculation: 3/4 X 3

Fraction calculator Enter fraction expression: 3/4 x 3 This fraction calculator performs all fraction operations - addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division — and evaluates expressions with fractions. Each calculation includes detailed step-by-step explanations.

The result:

3/4 * 3 = 9/4 = 2 1/4 = 2.25

Spelled out: nine quarters (or two and one quarter).

How do we solve fractions step by step?

1. Multiple: 3/4 * 3 = 3 · 3/4 · 1 = 9/4 The second operand is an integer. It is equivalent to the fraction 3/1. Multiply both numerators and denominators. Result fraction keep to lowest possible denominator GCD(9, 4) = 1. In the following intermediate step, it cannot further simplify the fraction result by canceling.In other words, three quarters multiplied by three equals nine quarters.

Rules for expressions with fractions:

Fractions - Use a forward slash to separate the numerator and denominator. For example, for five-hundredths, enter 5/100. Mixed numbers Leave one space between the whole number and the fraction part, and use a forward slash for the fraction. For example, enter 1 2/3 . For negative mixed numbers, write the negative sign before the whole number, such as -5 1/2. Division of fractions - Since the forward slash is used for both fraction lines and division, use a colon (:) to divide fractions. For example, to divide 1/2 by 1/3, enter 1/2 : 1/3. Decimals Enter decimal numbers using a decimal point (.), and they will be automatically converted to fractions. For example, enter 1.45.

This calculator follows the mathematical order of operations — a set of rules that ensures everyone solves expressions the same way, every time. Popular Memory Tricks Different regions use different mnemonics to remember this order: * PEMDAS - Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication, Division, Addition, Subtraction * BEDMAS - Brackets, Exponents, Division, Multiplication, Addition, Subtraction * BODMAS - Brackets, Order (or "Of"), Division, Multiplication, Addition, Subtraction * GEMDAS - Grouping symbols (parentheses, brackets, braces: (){}), Exponents, Multiplication, Division, Addition, Subtraction The Golden Rules Rule 1: Multiplication and division always come before addition and subtraction. Think of them as the VIPs that skip to the front of the line! Rule 2: When operations have equal priority (like × and ÷, or + and −), work from left to right—just like reading a book. Rule 3: Parentheses change the natural order of evaluation of operations.
