Well, isn't that just a happy little question! To write 8 and a half cents as a decimal, you can think of it as 8.5 cents. In decimal form, that would be 0.085. Just remember, there are no mistakes, just happy little accidents in math!
To convert 1/2% (0.5%) to a decimal divide, by 100: 0.5% ÷ 100 = 0.005
You cannot convert a decimal into a decimal!
It is quite simple to convert a percentage to a decimal fraction. Just move the decimal point two spaces to the left. So, 50% becomes .5 and 75% becomes .75 and half a percent (.5%) becomes .005 and 100% becomes 1. Percentage, remember, means out of a hundred. So 50% is 50 out of a hundred, which is half. And as a decimal, half is .5 which you can derive simply by moving the decimal point.
To convert a fraction to a decimal, divide the numerator (top number) by the denominator (bottom number). For example, 1/2 (one half) is 1 ÷ 2 = 0.5

Since 50 is half of 100, we double 32 to get 64. To convert to a decimal, just move the decimal point 2 places to the left. 0.64 is the answer.

The answer to one half times five and three fifths is 2.8. To make it easier, take the fraction of three fifths, and convert it into decimal form, which is 0.6. Add 5 to that. Take the fraction of one half and convert that into decimal form, which is 0.5. Now multiply 0.5 and 5.6, and you get your answer.
