I'm having some rounding issues with fractions.

Here is what excel is calculating:

-5/16 + 5/7 = 2/5

I'm looking for the answer 45/112

Also, for the value 24.666667 excel is showing 24 2/3. I would like this to show 74/3.
 

Excel Facts

Show numbers in thousands?
Use a custom number format of #,##0,K. Each comma after the final 0 will divide the displayed number by another thousand
Try formatting the cell as:
#?/##?
