Frequently asked questions
How do I type ½ instead of 1/2?+
Copy the single-character fraction ½ above and paste it in. On Windows ½ is Alt+0189, and in many word processors 1/2 auto-formats into a fraction, but pasting the Unicode character is the most reliable.
Are there fractions beyond quarters and thirds?+
Yes. Unicode includes eighths, fifths, sixths, and sevenths such as ⅛, ⅖, and ⅚. Browse the grid above to find the exact fraction you need.
Will these fractions work in recipes and spreadsheets?+
They work well in text-based recipes, documents, and labels. In spreadsheets they display fine as text, but note that a symbol like ½ is not treated as the number 0.5 for calculations.
