Template:Fraction
1⁄x
Template documentationThis template builds nicer-looking common fractions. It takes one, two or three parameters: the optional integer (may be signed), the optional numerator and the required denominator; in this order.
{{fraction|1|2|3}}- 1 ⅔ (integer, numerator and denominator)
{{fraction|2|3}}- ⅔ (numerator and denominator)
{{fraction|3}}- ⅓ (denominator only)
This template differs from {{frac}} in that it tries to use precomposed glyphs, but otherwise is identical to {{frac}}.

To allow numerical sorting of a column containing fractions, use {{sortfrac}} instead. It is a combination of {{frac}} and {{sort}}.
