Multiplying by 1 and a half.
Why taking one and a half of a number not the same as dividing by one and a half?
It is not the same because when you are taking 1.5 (one and a half) of a number, you are taking part of a number. when you divide the same number by 1.5 (one and a half) you are finding how many times 1.5 (one and a half) can fit inside the number. EXAMPLE: Taking or Finding 1.5% of a number 1.5%=0.15 0.15x25= 3.75 Dividing # by 1.5 25/1.5=16.6666667 see, two very different answers
