Answer:

A, B, D, E

Explanation:

To find if something is equal to fifty percent, split the second number in half.

For example, lets use option D.

32/2=16

16 is the first number in the option, meaning it is 50%.

Lets use an example where it wouldn't work. In this case, option C.

12/2=6

6≠9

Meaning 9 is not 50% of 12.
