What is half of 3/4?

Explanation:
Finding half of a fraction means multiplying the fraction by 1/2. So half of 3/4 is (3/4) × (1/2) = 3/8. You can also see it as dividing 3/4 by 2, which gives 3/8. In decimal terms, 3/4 is 0.75, and half of that is 0.375, which equals 3/8. The other options don’t fit because they don’t equal 3/8 (for example, 3/16 is smaller than 3/8, 7/16 is larger, and 1/2 is 0.5).
