Answer:

When you multiply a number by a fraction, the number always decreases. When you multiply a number by 1/2, it's always half of the original number

Explanation:

For example, take 4 x 1/2. It can be written as four halves. What do we get when we add four halves together?

1/2 + 1/2 + 1/2 + 1/2 = 2!

2 is less than 4. It is also half of the number four
