Multiply the two fractions. We presume you know how to do that.
(1/2) x (1/5) = 1/10
One half minus one fifth is 3 tenths
One half of one fifth is one tenth. You just 'double' the denominator if you want to get half of the fraction.
30 work inside out. 12000 /2 = 6000 (one-half) 6000/5 = 1200 (one-fifth of one-half) 1200/4 = 300 (one-fourth of one-fifth of one-half) 300/10 = 30 (one-tenth of one-fourth of one-fifth of one-half) OR you could also do it like this: 12000 / (10*4*5*2) (solving the brackets first) 12000 / (40*10) 12000 / 400 30 (the answer) 30 work inside out. 12000 /2 = 6000 (one-half) 6000/5 = 1200 (one-fifth of one-half) 1200/4 = 300 (one-fourth of one-fifth of one-half) 300/10 = 30 (one-tenth of one-fourth of one-fifth of one-half) OR you could also do it like this: 12000 / (10*4*5*2) (solving the brackets first) 12000 / (40*10) 12000 / 400 30 (the answer)

The term "a fifth" refers to one fifth of a gallon. One fifth of a gallon = 750ml. Therefore, a fifth of Hennessy = One 750ml bottle of Hennessy. :-)
15 and one half divided by 2 and one fifth = 7.5
One half is bigger.
