One Divided by q Half.

II you asl, the nan In the street the
simple question, What Is n divided
by a half? he will either reply that the
operation Is an impossible one or that
the answer is a half. When you point
out that one divided by two is a half.
he will see that there is something
wrong somewhere, but will still be
quite unable to give the right answer.
When you tell him that the answer is
two, he will either accept the assertion
without understanding it or will dis
pute 1t tooth and nail. II you attempt
to convince him of his error. you will
find 1t is not at all an easy task.
His mistake arises through the con-
founding Of two distinct ideas-namely.
n divided into two and one divided
by two. One divided into two 10 one
divided into two parts. each part con-
tanning a half. One divided by two IL
the ratio of one to two or the number
Of times two IL contained In one. To
any one who has thought the matter
out this seems clear enough. but to the
man In the street It IL sheer nonsense.
and he will tell you so.-Kansas City
