+# Fractions.js
+A library to help do more precise fractional math
+
+*What do you mean?*
+Multiply `.1` by `.2` in javascript and you'll get something around `0.020000000000000004`, even though the correct answer is `.2`
+
+You can read up more about it [here](http://floating-point-gui.de/).
+
+##How to set up
+###Node.js
+Install
+```
+npm install fractions
+```
+Then in your program
+```
+var Fraction = require('fractions');
+```
+###Browser
+Download Fraction.js, and then link it in your HTML
+```
+<script src="Fraction.js"></script>
+```
+##API
+###Create a fraction
+There are multiple ways to create a fraction
+```
+var oneHalf = new Fraction(1,2);
+var oneHalf = new Fraction(.5);
+var oneHalf = new Fraction("1/2");
+var oneHalf = new Fraction("1", "2")
+```
+###Add two fractions
+You can use Fraction.add(fraction1, fraction2) to add two fractions
+```
+var oneThird = new Fraction("1/3");
+var fourThirds = new Fraction("4/3");
+var fiveThirds = Fraction.add(oneThird, fourThirds);
+
+```
+You can also use Fraction.add() to add anything that can be converted into a fraction
+```
+var fiveThirds = Fraction.add("1/3", "4/3");
+```
+Another method of adding
+```
+var fiveThirds = new Fraction("1/3").add("4/3");
+```
+
+###Subtract two fractions
+```
+var oneThird = Fraction.subtract("5/3", "4/3");
+```
+
+```
+var oneThird = new Fraction("5/3").subtract("4/3");
+```
+###Multiply two fractions
+```
+var oneFiftieth = Fraction.multiply(".2", ".1");
+```
+```
+var oneFiftieth = new Fraction(".2").multiply(".1");
+```
+###Divide two fractions
+```
+var oneFifth = Fraction.divide(".02", ".1");
+```
+```
+var oneFifth = new Fraction(".02").divide(".1");
+```
+###Compare two fractions
+```
+var oneFifth = new Fraction(1,5);
+var oneOverFive = new Fraction("1/5");
+oneFifth.equals(oneOverFive); //true
+```
+###Compare to a number
+```
+var oneTenth = new Fraction(1,10);
+oneTenth == .1 //true
+```
