Think of 1 and a half cups of milk...
Split that into two glasses.... each glass would be 3/4 full...
Mathematically it is 3/2 divided by 2
To find half of 1 1/2, we can divide it by 2.
1 1/2 can also be written as an improper fraction: 3/2.
To divide a fraction by a whole number, we can multiply the numerator (top number) by the reciprocal of the whole number (in this case, the reciprocal of 2, which is 1/2).
So, our calculation would be:
(3/2) * (1/2) = (3 * 1) / (2 * 2) = 3/4
Therefore, half of 1 1/2 is 3/4.
