100 basis point is 1%, therefore, 1 basis point in 1/100% half a basis point is 0.5/100% (we will divide after adding the two zeros for the (%) and .5/10000 will equal .00005. Half a basis point of 1000,000 USD is equal to 50USD. Half a basis point of 100,000,000 USD is 5000USD and so on....
-1 1/2 (negative one and one half)
1/2 of 82 is 41.
It equals one half: 0.5=1/2
31.5 in words thirty one point five or thirty one and a half
It is 500, and there is no need for decimal point.
A basis point is one hundredth of a percentage point.
A basis point is one-one hundredth of a percent...so, 100 basis points.
What I think you may be referring to are "basis points". If that is the case, a basis point is essentially a fraction of a % (1/100). So, for every 1%, there are 100 basis points. If this did not answer your question, please let me know. If you are referring simply to "the market is up a half a point"... then that is just one dollar. There is no real reason for calling dollars points, it is just a tradition in US markets and are not the same as basis points.
The term basis point is a percentage measurement used to compare losses and gains on fixed income investments such as a bond. One basis point is equal to 0.01%.

it is the point where something is "cut in half." So if we bisect a line, we cut it in half and the midpoint is the bisection point. That is just one example
1/2, 0.5, one half, or point five.
One point Five ... OR One and a Half
The -3dB point is the point of half power. In a filter, the -3dB point, more commonly called the half-power point, is the point where the output power is one half the input power. A bandpass filter has two half-power points, and the distance between them is called the bandwidth, whereas a low-pass or high-pass filter has one half-power point, which is called the cutoff frequency. In terms of voltage, the half-power point is where the voltage is 0.707 (1 / square root(2)) of the input voltage.
NO... one cup is 8 ounces.... half = 4

yes. .5 (point 5) is one half, .57 (point 57) is bigger than .5 so .57 is bigger than one half
