But I didn't state half of anything, just a half, which when you talk in fractions not relevant to any number in particular, it's always relevant to one, since any complete fraction (and by that I mean 2/2, 3/3, 4/4 etc.) is equal to 1/1 or 1.

If you'd asked "Which number makes you think of 1/2?", then fair enough, but you didn't, you asked "Which number makes you think of half?", so again... Half of what?

But I didn't state half of anything, just a half (which translating my poor English would be one half - perhaps for accurate), which when you talk in fractions not relevant to any number in particular, it's always relevant to one, since any complete fraction (and by that I mean 2/2, 3/3, 4/4 etc.) is equal to 1/1 or 1.

Am I missing something? A fractional half, be it 2/4, 3/6, 4/8 etc. always reduces to 1/2, which when not relevant to a mentioned number (so this is very applicable in this case since I mentioned no number to which half pertained) is just... a half, or one half, of one.


And the 5/16 (8mm) - 5 16 8 thing.

5/16 is clearly not equal to 1/2. 16/8 is 2, then I saw the 5 and thought of 0.5 or half (lol). So then I thought half of 16 is 8 and how the 5/16" to 8mm relationship is beautiful.

I still don't agree with the "half" necessarily meaning 0.5 (Not in a logical sense), but what's more 5/16 of an inch is actually 7.9375, not 8!

But why? If I told you I had a 4 and a half inch penis (very respectable), wouldn't you assume I meant 4.5, not 6?

And that bombshell has ruined my night.

Listen guys, wifey's been away for over a week now, there's (believe it or not) a limit to the amount of vaginas you can look at over the internet.

Has she sent you pictures of her parking, to really rub it in?



BTW, I'm not playing your game - neither are half. 1/2 or 0.5 yes, but not the crackers bum droppings you put on the vote.

I'd assume 4.5 because you said "4 and a half". "4 and half" is 4 and half of 4 (2), which is 6.

And I'm very happy about that

I think it was "which one makes you THINK of half". Neither are half, except of 5 which is half of ten. 5 would make me think "half"

Didn't realise I'd missed out an a in the poll question

In my defence though, everyone else got it and I did clarify I meant A half on page 3

Half of what? 5 or 2.4?

wut

Half of one.

As in, a half.

Is this where your confusion is coming from? Either way you are being very finicky with your words "Which ones makes you think of half?" should be took to mean what I say - half, which at it’s most reduced fraction is 1/2 whether it’s half a million or half a banana. Half is 1/2, 0.5, 50%, 1:2, however you look at it.

"4 and half" is 4 and half of 4 (2), which is 6.

Let's pretend I said 4 and half. Half was never referenced as being relevant to 4, even more so since I made use of a unit that is equal to 1 ([4] and [half] inches). I didn’t say 4 and half of 4, or four and half of that, or four and half again, however many ways there are that I could say it.

Easy way to proof this:

[four] and [half]
[4/1] and [1/2]
4 1/2

[four] and [half of four]
[4/1] and [2/1]
6

But..but 1.2 is half of 2.4........

Because no-one else saw your error? And it was already too late by page 3

Of course half is referenced to 4. There are no other previous numbers involved (If there was then I would have had more questions for you ), I could assume you meant "4 and a half", but I have to question why you didn't say "4 and a half". My conclusion would be you didn't mean 4 and 0.5, you meant 4 and half of 4 (2)

But ok now, lets finish this. In response to your question "Which number makes you think of half?" a) 5 or b) 1.2...

Neither Although I can make them both half of something.

And in response to what should have been your question "Which number makes you think of a half?" a) 5 or b) 1.2...

Neither Are you mad?!

Bet you didnt think this would go on for 6 pages donald
