A decimal is simply a way of representing a number so that the place value of any digit is ten times the place value of the digit to its right. So 1 is a decimal number and therefore 1 pint would be a decimal pint.

To get one-half of any number, just divide it by 2.
"Pint" is a relative term. I doubt that you are refering to the "US dry pint", so let's just ignore that issue. As a liquidmeasurement, a pint is normally 1/8 of a gallon. The UK uses the IMPERIAL gallon (160 fluid ounces), so in the UK a pint is 20 fluid ounces. In the US, where a gallon is 128 fluid ounces, a pint is 16 fluid ounces -- a US pint of water weighs a bit more than one pound, but this holds true only for water. Since "pint" is a measure of volume, not weight, a pint of some other liquid will weigh more or less than water.As to four pints...well there is no separate base-word that equates to four pints. Two pints is a quart. Four pints equals one half-gallon if that is any help to you. In the US, this would be 64 fluid ounces. In the UK, it would be 80 fluid ounces....And if you're drinking beer, four pints will likely equal a hangover (grin).
