What is 1/2 as a percentage? It is 50.00%. This is the simple way to see how the fraction 1/2 relates to a whole expressed in percent.
When you think of 1/2, picture cutting something in half—each piece is exactly one out of two equal parts. In percentage terms, that same idea becomes half of 100, which lands right at 50 percent. It’s a handy reference for any situation where you need to compare halves to a full amount.
Using 50.00% makes it easy to communicate the size of a half in everyday language, whether you’re talking about a discount, a score, or a portion of a project completed. The decimal places show precision, but the value still means the same simple “half.”
