There are 4 because 4/2 = 2
2 halves make a whole
There are only 2 halves to any number. If you mean how many halves are in 4 wholes: Since there are 2 halves to a whole, you multiply 2 x 4, which gives you a total of 8 halves in 4 wholes.

8
4 of them because 4 times 1/2 = 2
2 ÷ 1/2 = 2 x 2/1 = 4 Alternatively: 1 whole is 2 halves → 2 wholes = 2 x 2 halves = 4 halves.
Two halves is the same as a whole, in other words two halves equals one. In symbols, 2/2=1. So the question is how many fourths equal 1? The answer is 4/4 =1.
12/3 = 4 whole ones.
Well, if there are 2 halves in 1 whole, 2x4=8. Or you could count as 2, 4, 6, 8.
