\( \frac{1}{2} \) of 12

Did you know that calculating \( \frac{1}{2} \) of a number is super simple and can be done by just dividing the number by 2? So, for 12, you’d take \( 12 \div 2 \), which equals 6. This method works for any number and is a handy trick in everyday math! Let's say you're sharing a pizza with a friend. If the pizza has 12 slices, then taking \( \frac{1}{2} \) means each of you gets 6 slices. This practical math comes in handy when dividing food, sharing expenses, or even splitting tasks!
