## anonymous 4 years ago How do you write a fraction on here?

1. Rogue

Good question, I was wondering the same...

2. anonymous

type a number use the slash mark then type the other # example 2/9

3. Rogue

No, not like that.

4. anonymous

\frac{ numerator }{ denominator}

5. anonymous

but it needs to be enclosed in brackets like this: $6. anonymous And then closed with brackets like this$

7. Rogue

Is that in the equations editor?

8. anonymous

Yes

9. anonymous

So if I type \ [ \frac{ 3 }{ 4} \ ] without the spaces, I get $\frac{3}{4}$

10. anonymous

I typed frac {2}3 $\frac {2}3$

11. Rogue

$\frac {1}{x}$

12. Rogue

Oh, alrighty, thank you :)

13. anonymous

Nice job Rouge

14. anonymous

{2}3

15. anonymous

Yep. It's a typesetting language called LaTeX, which you can google if you want to know how to do other things.

16. anonymous

it is not working for me...

17. anonymous

You need to type \*[ \frac{2}{3} \*] without the *s

18. anonymous

where is the first symbol on the keyboard.

19. anonymous

On a standard qwerty keyboard it's above the enter key

20. anonymous

return key, whatever

21. anonymous

Ok i couldn't find it thanks.

22. anonymous

$frac{2}{3}$

23. anonymous

Close, you need the slash before frac though...

24. anonymous

Dang i can not get this down.

25. anonymous

Just type exactly what I had in the box without the asterisks....

26. anonymous

$\frac{2}{3}$

27. anonymous

Got it... now how do i type that inside of braquets? like these [...] cause i have a problem that i need to post that is inside of these

28. anonymous

Just type them.

29. anonymous

Alright i will give it a try.

30. anonymous

$\left[ \[\frac \right]$

31. anonymous

see it did not work idk how to do it.

32. anonymous

You only need to type the outer brackets \ [ once. and then you need to type numbers after the \frac.

33. anonymous

$[\frac{2}{3}]$

34. anonymous

or using the \left and \right style brackets, $\left[ \frac{2}{3} \right]$

35. anonymous

I need to do those?
