How to use this tool
Enter two nonnegative values to reduce their ratio. Decimal inputs are converted to exact fractions before the common divisor is calculated, avoiding floating-point rounding in the simplified result.
At least one value must be positive. A zero component remains zero. Use a decimal point, no thousands separators, and no scientific or repeating notation; each value may contain at most 80 digits.
Worked example
1.5 : 2.25 simplifies to 2 : 3. A ratio of 0 : 8 simplifies to 0 : 1.
