Mathematics Calculators
Arithmetic, algebra, geometry, trigonometry and number-theory tools.
The Mathematics calculators cover everyday percentages and fractions, algebra and geometry, number systems, and the heavier tools — matrices, vectors, logarithms — that come up in school and engineering courses. Each page shows the formula it applies, so the tools are as useful for checking a method as for getting an answer.
Which Mathematics calculator do you need?
- Percentages — of a number, change, differencePercentage CalculatorThe general percentage tool; percentage-change and percentage-difference cover the comparisons.
- Adding, simplifying or converting fractionsFraction CalculatorAdds, subtracts, multiplies or divides two fractions and shows the result as a fraction and a decimal.
- Solving an equationQuadratic Formula CalculatorRoots of ax² + bx + c = 0 and the discriminant, including complex roots; its worked examples show each step.
- A right triangle's longest sidePythagorean Theorem CalculatorThe hypotenuse from the two shorter sides, using a² + b² = c².
- Area of a shapeArea CalculatorArea for common shapes; circle, triangle and polygon tools go into more detail.
- Converting between binary, decimal and hexBinary CalculatorConverts in either direction; single-direction tools exist for the most common conversions.
- Working with matricesMatrix CalculatorAdds, subtracts or multiplies matrices; determinant and inverse have their own tools.

Percentage change vs percentage difference
Percentage change measures a move from an old value to a new one, so the starting value is the base and the direction matters. Percentage difference compares two values with neither as the starting point, using their average as the base — which is why the two tools can give different answers for the same pair of numbers.
Limitations
- Results are rounded for display; very large or very small inputs can show rounding error.

Adding and Subtracting Mixed Numbers Step by Step
The mixed number calculator converts each mixed number to an improper fraction, applies the operation, and converts back — and this article traces that process through real add, subtract, and multiply results.
Read guideAdding, Multiplying, and Dividing Fractions With One Formula
The fraction calculator handles add, subtract, multiply, and divide with the same core steps — combine the numerators and denominators for the chosen operation, then simplify — and this article walks through a real result for each operation.
Read guideArithmetic vs Geometric Sequences: How to Tell Them Apart
An arithmetic sequence adds the same fixed amount to get each next term; a geometric sequence multiplies by the same fixed factor instead — the test is whether consecutive terms share a constant difference or a constant ratio.
Read guideBasic Arithmetic: Worked Examples for Add, Subtract, Multiply, and Divide
The basic math calculator handles exactly four operations on two numbers, and seeing real results for each — including a division that lands on a whole number — shows how it rounds internally versus what it displays.
Read guideBig Number Results in Scientific Notation
A big-number arithmetic result can run to dozens of digits, and feeding that exact digit string straight into the scientific notation calculator turns it into a compact, readable mantissa and exponent.
Read guideCalculating the Area, Perimeter, and Interior Angle of a Regular Decagon
A regular decagon's perimeter, area, and interior angle all fall out of just two inputs — the number of sides and the side length — and this article works through the real numbers for one.
