Using the S⇔D Button (Modern Models)
On modern Casio calculators (such as the fx-991EX ClassWiz or fx-82ES PLUS), the primary way to toggle between decimal and fraction format is the S⇔D key (Standard to Decimal).
- Type your decimal (e.g., 0.8) and press =.
- Locate the fraction key, usually labeled S⇔D
- Press it once. The screen will instantly switch the decimal to a fraction (e.g., 4/5).
- Press it again to switch back to decimal format.
Using the a b/c Key (Older Models)
If you are using an older Casio scientific calculator like the fx-82MS, you will use the fraction key labeled a b/c.
- Type: =.
- Press the a b/c key.
- The calculator will format the fraction using a small angle symbol (like
3⌟4).

Improper vs. Mixed Fractions
By default, Casio calculators might convert decimals greater than 1 into improper fractions (like 5/2).
To convert this into a mixed number (2 1/2), you need to press SHIFT followed by the S⇔D key (which accesses the a b/c ⇔ d/c secondary function).
