Using this free handy Fractions Estimating Calculator tool we can estimate the sum and differences of the fractions. The thing you need to do is just give the input values in the input fields and tap the calculate button, you will see the answer in very short span of time.
Ex: Estimate 4/5 + 7/9 nearest 1/2 (or) Estimate 4/5 - 7/9 nearest 1/4 (or) Estimate 4/15 - 7/19 nearest 1/8
Here are some samples of Fractions Estimating calculations.
Fractions Estimating Calculator: Estimating fractions is easy to do. But sometimes we will get bored to calculate them. For that we have brought you an awesome tool to estimate the fractions easily and you will get the answer effortlessly in no time. And also we have given the detailed steps to calculate and definition in further sections.
In estimating fractions, we will estimate the fractions when we do not need an exact answer. That estimation also should be very close to the exact answer. Before estimating the fractions the main thing we need to do is rounding each fraction to the nearest of 0,1/2,1. For more accurate estimation we can round fractions to 1/4 and 1/8.
Here, we can see the process of estimating fractions by using rounding the value to achieve estimated answers of sum and differences of fractions. By following these steps you can easily do it by hand.
Examples
Question: Solve the estimation of fractions 3/6 + 2/7 to the nearest 1/2?
Solution:
Given fractions are 3/6 and 2/7
1/4 ≤ 3/6 ≤ 3/4 rounded to 1/2
1/4 ≤ 2/7 ≤ 3/4 rounded to 1/2
Estimating:
1/2 + 1/2 = 1
Likewise you can also find the estimate value for difference and also to the nearest of any value.
