If the calculator has the option for fractions, it will usually have a key labelled "a b/c". Use this "fraction" key to input fractions. For example, to input 1/2, type 1 (fraction) 2; to input 3 1/2 (three and one-half), type 3 (fraction) 1 (fraction) 2. If the calculator DOES NOT have the option for fractions (though most modern scientific calculators do), you can write the fraction as a division; for example if you type 2 / 3, you get two divided by three, which is the same as the fraction 2/3. In such a case, the calculator will show the result in decimal, though.
If you have a graphing calculator type that in hit = >math >enter >enter
These instuctions are for a Texas Instruments graphing calculator. First type 5. Then press the math key and select the fifth option. Then type the number you want under the radical.
Since the last number is in the hundredths place the answer would be 17/100. Or if you have a Texas Instruments calculator TI-30XIIS, type in .17 and hit the 2nd button then press PRB and it should have the answer of 17/100.
9/5= 1.8 i guess it depends on the type of calculator you have. a TI-83/84 would have it something like 9L5
Type in the top number then press the devide button then type the bottom number, press equals then take note of the decimal given. repeat this for the fraction you wish to compare it to and which ever gives the highest decimal will be the larger fraction.
To type a fraction such as 5/8, enter 5 divided by 8, or 5/8. To type a fraction like 42/3, enter (4 + 2/3). To veiw your answer as a fraction, press MATH and select option 1, >Frac (after you have done your calculation). You should see Ans>Frac. Press ENTER.
well just type it in the calculator that's one way . lol i am still trying to figure out the other
This will depend on the type of calculator you have. This will depend on the type of calculator you have.

.25=1/4 .50=1/2 The only way I know to explain it is to get a calculator. On graphing calculators, if you type in the decimal, press enter, then press math, fraction and it will give you a fraction in simplest form.
