Answer:

3/10

Explanation:

To find half of 3/5 first set up a multiplication problem:

(1/2)*(3/5)

Now multiply the numerators by each other and the denominators by each other:

(1*3)/(2*5)

The result of this multiplication is: 3/10

Answer:

3/10

Explanation:

To find how much remains, you need to find 1/2 of 3/5 which is 1/2 * 3/5. To multiply the two fractions, multiply the two numerators and multiply the two denominators to get 3/10. Thus, 3/10 of the candy bar remains.

Hope this helps :)
