Mathematically that would be 'minus a half'. (-1/2).
1/4 - 5/6 is 5/12. that is less than 1/2.
One and a half minus one and a half is zero.
0.06 is less than one half. One half is equivalent to 0.5, and since 0.06 is significantly smaller than 0.5, it is indeed less than one half.
One kilogram equals 1,000 grams. One-half of a kilogram equals 500 grams. 500 grams minus 380 grams equals 120 grams. 380 grams is 120 grams less than half a kilogram.
Less than one half of a number is a quarter of a number.
2/11 is less than one half. One half would be 5.5/11, and 2 is obviously less than 5.5.
5 percent is less than one half
One half is more than 1/6.
Minus a quarter
The numerator is less than half of the denominator.
A quarter is less than half. Specifically, a quarter represents one-fourth (1/4) of a whole, while half represents one-half (1/2). Since one-fourth is smaller than one-half, a quarter is indeed less than half.
