FractionSolver is a focused fraction calculator that shows the full, step-by-step working behind every answer — not just the result. Point your camera at a printed or handwritten fraction equation to scan and solve it instantly, or enter it with the structured math keypad. FractionSolver converts mixed numbers, finds the least common denominator, combines terms, and reduces the result, then renders each step in proper math notation with bar, circle, and number-line visuals.

Could you build this?
No It relies on local, offline OCR capable of segmenting and parsing complex handwritten or printed mathematical fractions into deterministic mathematical syntax trees on-device without cloud AI.
What it would actually take: The architecture requires an iOS app (Swift/SwiftUI) integrating Apple's Vision framework combined with custom CoreML models fine-tuned specifically on handwritten mathematical symbols and spatial equation layouts (or an engine like Mathpix). It requires an on-device deterministic computer algebra system (CAS) parser to translate bounding boxes into mathematical fractions, calculate step-by-step solutions (GCD, LCD), and render custom visual diagrams (pie/circle charts, number lines).
