►Frac attempts to display the input in fraction form. It only works on the home screen outside a program, or with the Disp and Pause commands in a program. It takes up to 12 decimal places of a non-terminating decimal to find the corresponding fraction. The decimal input is returned if ►Frac fails to find the fraction form.

For a more versatile algorithm for finding fractions, see the Decimal to Fraction routine.
