<p class="Paragraph"><help:paragraphinfo state="U" number="40"/>You can enter a fractional number in a cell and use it for calculation:</p>
<ul class="L1">
<li class="">
<p style=""><help:paragraphinfo state="U" number="42"/>Enter "0 1/5" in a cell (without the quotation marks) and press the input key. In the input line above the spreadsheet you will see the value 0.2, which is used for the calculation.</p>
</li>
</ul>
<p class="Paragraph"><help:paragraphinfo state="U" number="43"/>If you enter "0 1/2" AutoCorrect causes the three characters 1, / and 2 to be replaced by a single character. The same applies to 1/4 and 3/4. This replacement is defined in <span style="font-weight:bold;">Tools - AutoCorrect</span> <span style="font-weight:bold;">Replace</span> tab.</p>
<p class="Paragraph"><help:paragraphinfo state="U" number="44"/>If you want to see multi-digit fractions such as "1/10", you must change the cell format to the multi-digit fraction view. Open the Context menu of the Cell, and choose <span style="font-weight:bold;">Format cells. </span>Select "Fraction" from the <span style="font-weight:bold;">Category</span> field, and then select "-1234 10/81". You can then enter fractions such as 12/31 or 12/32 - the fractions are, however, automatically reduced, so that in the last example you would see 3/8.</p>
