Reading fractions

Reading Fractions is an interactive Chrome extension designed to help users grasp fractions through visual and tactile learning. It features graphical representations of fractions using overlapping circles and bars, which users can manipulate by dragging to change the values dynamically. Two spinners allow selection of numerators and denominators, with lock buttons to fix either component during adjustments, enabling exploration of equivalent fractions and simplification.

The extension expresses fractions not only graphically but also in words, percentages, and decimal notation, supporting English, Catalan, Castilian (Spanish), French, and Portuguese languages. Simplification is made easy by clicking on the simplified fraction display. This tool is ideal for students and educators aiming to strengthen the understanding of rational numbers through an engaging and multilingual interface.
