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).
Four eighths
three eighths
One-half of three-fourths is three-eighths.
1/2+3/8=7/8 -lover of math geeks ;) the common denominator is eight, so one half is converted into four eights. Then, three eighths plus four eighths is seven eighthts, so your answer is seven eighths. - A math geek
one half because 4 eighths would be a half
To find out how much less three-eighths is than one-half, first convert one-half to eighths. One-half is equivalent to four-eighths. Subtracting three-eighths from four-eighths gives you one-eighth. Therefore, three-eighths is one-eighth less than one-half.
one and seven eighths

It is one negative half.
one half
One-half of three-fourths is three-eighths.
Three eighths plus one eighth equals four eighths. When you add these fractions, you keep the same denominator, which is eight. Four eighths can be simplified to one half. Thus, three eighths plus one eighth equals one half.
No. Seven eighths is more than one half AND three quarters.
