To enter a fractional value into a cell, leave a space between the whole number and the fraction. For example, to enter 67?8, enter 6 7/8 and then press Enter. When you select the cell, 6.875 appears in the Formula bar, and the cell entry appears as a fraction. If you have a fraction only (for example, 1?8), you must enter a zero first, like this: 0 1/8—otherwise, Excel will likely assume that you’re entering a date. When you select the cell and look at the Formula bar, you see 0.125. In the cell, you see 1?8.
