This is why I don't like decimal notation lol
(1/4)/(1/2)=1/2
makes it way clearer what is going on.I am in the completely opposite camp of you, I cannot, for the life of me comprehend the equation in this form.
What's not to understand? One divided by four divided by one divided by two equals one divided by two. Simple.
I understand the math, that isn’t the problem. It’s how it looks. I have a struggle parsing it.
Come on it's not even middle school maths.
(1/4) / (1/2) = (1/4) X (2/1) = (1/4) X 2 = 2/4 = 1/2 = 0.5
it has nothing to do with the equation itself, but the way that it looks. I understand the basics of the mathematics, but looking at it in this form does not work for me.
