This template builds an alternative form ofcommon fractions. The template takes zero, one, two, or three parameters: the optional integer (may be signed), the optional numerator and the required denominator; in this order.
Please do notsubstitute it. This template should alsonot be used in certain situations; seeMOS:FRAC andMOS:MATH § Fractions. For science or mathematical articles, use{{sfrac}} instead. To allow numerical sorting of a column containing fractions, usedata-sort-value="X.YYY" whereX.YYY is a rounded decimal equivalent. SeeHelp:Sortable tables for more information and options. Inside citation templates, use the cleaner{{citefrac}}.
{{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 anon-breaking space between when the spacing is desirable. For example: "33 {{frac|1|3}}".
For science or mathematical articles, use {{sfrac}} instead. Per [[MOS:FRAC]] and [[MOS:MATH#Fractions]].A template for displaying common fractions of the form int+num/den nicely. It supports 0–3 anonymous parameters with positional meaning.
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.
