1/2 of (a + b) is a/2 + b/2, so if a is the whole number and b is the fraction, then just divide each by 2. For the fraction, this could be by multiplying the denominator by 2. If the whole number is odd, then you will have a fraction of one half (1/2) to add to the other fraction, which may need to be simplified afterward.
