How to use the Partial Fraction Decomposition Calculator:
- Enter the numerator (e.g.,
2x+3) in the first field. - Enter the denominator (e.g.,
x^2-1) in the second field. - Specify the variable (e.g.,
x) in the third field. Must be a single letter. - Click "Decompose" to get the result and step-by-step breakdown.
Notes:
- Use
^for exponents (e.g.,x^2). - This calculator currently supports denominators with two distinct linear factors only.
- If the numerator degree is higher than the denominator, polynomial division is performed first.

Frequently Asked Questions
It is a method to break a rational function into a sum of simpler fractions, useful for integration and other operations.
Enter polynomials in standard form, e.g., 2x+3 for numerator and x^2-1 for denominator. Use ^ for exponents.
This calculator currently supports only distinct linear factors. For more complex cases, consider a more advanced tool.
