One half "of" a number means one half "times" that number, so just multiply it. One and three eighths means one plus 3/8; you can either multiply 1/2 times 1 and 1/2 times 3/8 separately, then add the results (distributive property!), or first convert 1 3/8 to an improper fraction (11/8 in this case).
