All one has to do is follow directions.....

Fred,
This is for you... let's see what you can do!

Okay you experts, I need need help with an assignment:

Rational fractions are of the form a/b, where a and b are integers and b !=0. By "fraction" we mean rational fractions. Suppose a/b and c/d are fractions. Arithmetic operations on fractions are defined by the following rules:

a/b + c/d = (ad + bc)/bd
a/b - c/d = (ad - bc)/bd
a/b * c/d = ac/bd
(a/b) / (c/d) = ad /bc

I have to design the class fraction that can be used to manipulate fractions in a program. The class fraction must include methods to add, subtract, multiply, and divide fractions. When you add, subtract, multiply, or divide fractions, your answer need not be in the lowest terms.

Write a Java console program using the class fraction that performs operations on fractions. Override the method toString so that the fraction can be output using the output statement.

Can someone please help me with this assignment or at least get me started in the right direction. Thanks in advance/jrh

Can someone pls show me or get me started in the right direction for writing a while loop to perforem the following steps:

1. Prompt the user to input two integers: dirstNum and secondNum.
2. Output all results to a file, placing an appropriate lable between each section of output.
3. Output all odd numbers between firstNum and secondNum.
4. Output the sum of all even numbers between firstNum and secondNum.
5. Output the numbers and their square between firstNum and secondNum.
6. Output the sun of the squares of the odd numbers between firstNum and secondnum.

Thank you very much/jrh

Hi, Can someone pls assist me in writing this GUI program. I'm attempting to write a GUI program to convert all letters in a string to uppercase letters. For example harvey808 would be converted to HARVEY808.

class Uppercase {
public static void main(String[] args)
{
String s = "harvey808";
String s2 = s.toUpperCase();
System.out.println(s2);
}
}

Thank you very much.

Best,
jrh
