How can I write a fraction on a graphing calculator?

What button is it or do i have to write three divide by eight with the division symbol instead of the diagonal line between the two.  That will work too right?

In answer to all those people who want to know how to do fractions on this calculator:

Here are some of the replies from various answers; I hope they can help you out:

 

Re: How do you do fractions on this calculator?

"5 and a half - 8 and a quarter would be

$$\left({\mathtt{5}}{\mathtt{\,\small\textbf+\,}}{\frac{{\mathtt{1}}}{{\mathtt{2}}}}\right){\mathtt{\,-\,}}\left({\mathtt{8}}{\mathtt{\,\small\textbf+\,}}{\frac{{\mathtt{1}}}{{\mathtt{4}}}}\right) = -{\mathtt{2.75}}$$ "(by Melody)

 

Re: where is the fraction button

"It is a box above a box" (by Anonymous)

"On many calculators out guest is correct. There is no fraction button on the Web2.0calc  You have to use the $$\div$$ button. To enter 3 and 1/2 - 6 and a quarter you would press

$$(3+1\div2)-(6+1\div 4)=$$" (by Melody)

 

Re: How do we use fractions on this calculator??

"with the $$\div$$ button. If you are doing calculations with mixed numerals it is best to put them in brackets like $$(3+1\div 2)$$" (by Melody)

"You can use forward slash / as we write in a fraction. 6/2 is a fraction. And if there are more numerals involved, use brackets as (6*2+8)/4

I hope it helps." (by novice)

"you simply make it a decmil if 4 were 1/4 i would put 4.25" (by Gman2598)
