Best Answer

0.5 percent (0.5%) is one half percent.

0.5 is one half or 50 percent.

The "cent" part comes from the Latin and means "100", and is the same root used in "centurion" (Roman soldiers were organized into groups of 100), "century" (100 years), "cent" (100 cents in a dollar), "centipede" (100 feet).
