We're hoping that nobody ever taught you that every fraction has a

"whole number" connected to it somehow. It doesn't.

Let's put it as simply as we can: If you have one half of a Pizza, then

how many whole pizzas is that ? And if you have one half of a dollar,

then how many whole dollars is that ?

One half is just what it says . . . one half. There is no whole number for it.

You'd need to get another half from somewhere and put them together

just to make the smallest whole number there is.
