What is half of 1 1/3?

  • Convert 1 1/3 to an improper fraction: 1 1/3 = 4/3
  • Divide by 2: (4/3) ÷ 2 = 4/6
  • Simplify 4/6 to 2/3
  • So, half of 1 1/3 is 2/3
  • Great for learning fractions and division!
 
This problem can be resolved by changing the mixed number to a "improper fraction." Since three thirds make one, the incorrect fraction is 4/3 if you have 1 1/3. Since two is half of four, the solution is 2/3.
