If you’re giving a presentation for a company or teaching a lesson in a math class, it’s likely you’ll be using fractions in the presentation. PowerPoint provides several different fraction structures, including skewed, stacked, linear, and small. Here’s how to use them.
Different Fraction Structures in PowerPoint
There are a few ways to write fractions in PowerPoint. If you’re happy with the default fraction structure that you get by simply typing in the fraction, that’s great! If you’re discussing more complex equations, it might be worth looking at the other available structures in PowerPoint.
As mentioned before, the default fraction structure that you get by simply typing the fraction in PowerPoint is called a linear structure. Here’s an example of how that looks. In this case, the fraction maintains the current font style and size settings as the rest of the text in your paragraph.
When you use the tool provided by PowerPoint to insert the linear fraction, it reformats it a bit. Here’s an example of how that looks.
As you can see, it looks a bit different than when you type it in directly. The inserted version italicizes the text and uses the Cambria Math font.
PowerPoint also provides several other fraction structures if linear doesn’t work for you. Here’s a list of the different styles:
- Stacked Fraction
- Skewed Fraction
- Linear Fraction
- Small Fraction
- dy over dx
- cap delta y over cap delta x
- partial y over partial x
- delta y over delta x
- pi Over 2
