Is 0.5 the same as 50?

Answer 1

No, 0.5 is not the same as 50. 0.5 is a decimal number representing half, or 50%, of a whole, while 50 is a whole number representing 50 units. The decimal point placement is crucial here, as it determines the value of the number in relation to the whole.

No because 50 is one hundred times greater than 0.5
