Template:Frac
Template:No subst This template builds an alternative form of common fractions. The template takes one, two, or three parameters: the optional integer (may be signed), the optional numerator and the required denominator; in this order.
Please do not subst:itute it. This template should not be used in science or mathematical articles, per MOS:FRAC and MOS:MATH#Fractions; use {{sfrac}} instead. To allow numerical sorting of a column containing fractions, use data-sort-value="X.YYY" where X.YYY is a rounded decimal equivalent. See Help:Sorting for more information and options.
{{frac|A|B|C}}- Template:SpaceA B⁄C (integer, numerator and denominator)
{{frac|A|B}}- Template:SpaceA⁄B (numerator and denominator)
{{frac|A}}- Template:Space1⁄A (denominator only)
{{frac}}- Template:Space⁄ (fraction slash only)
