To find half of a number, you divide that number by 2. In this case, the number is 1 and 34. However, we first need to clarify what ‘1 and 34’ means. If we take ‘1 and 34’ to mean the mixed number 1 34/100 (which combines whole and decimal), we can convert it to a fraction.
First, convert 1 into a fraction: 1 is the same as 100/100. Now we add this to 34/100, which gives us:
100/100 + 34/100 = 134/100
Now to find half, we divide by 2:
(134/100) / 2 = 134/200
Simplifying this fraction yields:
134 ÷ 2 = 67
So, half of 134/100 is 67/100.
In decimal form, this is 0.67, which can also be written as 67% if needed. Therefore, half of 1 and 34, interpreted as 1.34, is 0.67.
