1/2 and 1/8 have different denominators. If I (or you) were to change 1/2 into 4/8, which I (or you) can do because 4/8 is a half and a half is 1/2. Basically 4/8=1/2. But if we change 1/2 to 4/8 and left 1/8 as 1/8, they would both be like fractions.

1/8 + 1/2 = 5/8
One eighth is less than one half. When comparing fractions, one half (1/2) is equivalent to four eighths (4/8), making one eighth (1/8) significantly smaller. Therefore, one eighth is not only less than one half but also represents a smaller portion of a whole.
A half is larger than an eighth. Specifically, a half represents 0.5, while an eighth represents 0.125. Therefore, when comparing the two, half is greater than an eighth.

If you know fractions, that should be a walk in the park. 4/8 = 1/2 when reduced. This means that four eighth notes is equal to one half.

A quarter, an eighth and a third are pretty common in every day life

one eighth
My initial response was "An eighth what... ounce, pound kilo" but the better reply is that you really need to bone up on your math fractions. 1/8 divided by 1/2 = 1/(8 * 2) = 1/16 (1/8 div 2 = 1/8 div 2/1 = 1/8 * 1/2 = 1/16 ) I suspect the questioner really wanted the answer to "How many grams equals one half of an eighth ounce." Most pedestrian drug users know that an eight-ball (eighth ounce) weighs 3.5 grams and a half eight-ball is a teener weighing 1.75 grams. P.s. A half eighth of weed will always be half of an eighth of an ounce of weed.
Quarter, eighth, eighth, half
no.
Yes, One half of a fourth is one eighth. A fourth of a half is one eighth aswell.
