 why is 0.5%  not equal to 1/2?

Mathematics

It is not equal to 1/2 because .5% is indeed a percent, and therefore a fraction of 100. If you were to rewrite .5% as a fraction, you would write it as 5/100, which simplifies to 1/20, which is nowhere near 1/2. 50% or .5 would be equal to 1/2.

Count back 25 minutes from 4:15 and you’ll get 3:50. The numbers on the clock are 5 minutes apart. It should be easy to solve just by using a standard clock
