The As a Fraction App was created in response to requests by visitors to our popular https://thefractioncalculator.com website. Educators and students wanted a standalone application that does not require an Internet connection to convert decimal numbers and percents to fractions. This powerful number-crunching app can do two things very well. It can convert decimal numbers to fractions, and it can convert percents to fractions. The fractions (or mixed numbers) are given in the simplest form possible. The app does not require an Internet connection, so you can use it anytime and anywhere. The goal was to make the app intuitive, clutter free, fast to operate, and easy to use. We hope the As a Fraction App will become one of your favorite math apps.
