If you divided a number by 0.5, the result would be a. twice the original number. b. half of the original number. c. a fifth of the original number. d. five times the original number. b is wrong i just took the test.

➷ Dividing by 0.5 would be working out how many halves are in it

As you know, there are two halves in 1

Thus, the answer would be A. twice the original number.

B) Half the original number

This is because 0.5 is equal to 1/2

Hope this helps! ;)
