What is half of 3/10?

Explanation:
To find half of a fraction, multiply by 1/2. So half of 3/10 is (3/10) × (1/2) = 3/20. You can multiply across: 3×1 = 3 and 10×2 = 20, giving 3/20. In decimal form, 3/10 is 0.3, and half of that is 0.15, which is 3/20. The other options don’t match the half value: 3/5 is 0.6, 3/40 is 0.075, and 1/20 is 0.05. The correct result is 3/20.
