If you are asking what half of five is, the "technical" way is "five times one half," which sounds weird, but one must use the opposite mathemathical function of a mathematical function to get the right answer. half of five is 2 1/2. punch this into your calculator to get half of five: 5 x 0.5 = this is HALF OF FIVE. ................ However, when you repeat the same mathemetical function (you cannot divide the fraction in this case because a fraction is a form of division), it will multply your answer by the denominator. 5 / 0.5 = 10 these are not one in the same. this may be correct in a certain situation, but this answer is NOT half of five.
