the answer is 5

This is because if you divide 2 and 1/2 by 1/2 you would get 5. So if you add 1/2 + 1/2 + 1/2+ 1/2+1/2 you would get 2 and a 1/2. If you count all the half’s you added there is 5.

Answer:

5

Explanation:

there are 2 halves in one whole. Knowing that we will multiply, 2x2. That is 4, and then we will add the other half to our amount of halves to see the answer.
