wrong, n divided by 2and 2 multiplied by n
Ms. Sue
Check out the difference(?) between
10/2 and 0.5 * 10 and 1/2 of 10
or
24/2 and 0.5 * 24 and 1/2 of 24
Aren't they the same? Don't they all get the same answers?
2 * n = 2n
10/2 and 0.5 * 10 and 1/2 of 10
or
24/2 and 0.5 * 24 and 1/2 of 24
Aren't they the same? Don't they all get the same answers?
2 * n = 2n

the book wants you to write an algebric expression for half of a Number so that is N/2 and twice a Number which is N^2
Shavaleir
Can you help me with the one below this one in my name
Ms. Sue
Oops -- twice a number is NOT the same as N squared.
5 * 2 = 10
5^2 = 25
I suggest you study your book more thoroughly.
