So what do we mean by half? Half means there are two of the thing, and so all you need to do is divide it by two. Half of 884/22 is just another way of saying 884/22 divided by 2:

884/22 ➗ 2

Now we know that "half" means to divide by 2, how do we half 884/22? Remember that a fraction a part of the whole, so the higher the denominator is, the smaller the piece. The answer is that the numerator stays the same and we multiply the denominator by 2:

884/22 x 2
=
884/44

That's it! Working out half of 884/22 really is that easy. Hopefully you understood the process and can use the same techniques to halve other fractions as well. The complete answer is below (simplified to the lowest form):

20 1/11
