1/2 % = .5 % = .005
so you are correct.
(your mom's 50% would be .5 )
Yes, you are correct. 1/2% is equal to 0.5%. To demonstrate why, let's break it down step by step:
First, remember that "percent" means "out of 100." So when you see a number followed by a percent sign (%), it represents that number out of 100.
Now, let's convert the fraction 1/2% into a decimal. To do this, we divide the numerator, which is 1, by the denominator, which is 2. So 1 divided by 2 equals 0.5.
Finally, we convert the decimal into a percentage by multiplying it by 100. Therefore, 0.5 multiplied by 100 equals 0.5%.
Hence, 1/2% is equal to 0.5%, not 50%.
