Answer:

5 is just 5, as a whole number, decimal, or fraction. the 1/2 can be multiplied by 50 on both sides(numerator and denominator) to get 50/100. 100 is a decimal number, so the ANSWER is 5.50 or 5.5.

Answer:

5.5

Explanation:

1/2 of 1 is 0.5 so you just add that to the end of the number. Or where the fraction would be.
