One half has two different decimal expansions, the familiar 0.5 and the recurring 0.4999999... It has a similar pair of expansions in any even base. It is common to believe these expressions represent distinct numbers: see the proof that 0.999... equals 1 for a detailed discussion of a related case. In odd bases, one half has no terminating representation, only a single representation with a repeating fractional component, such as 0.11111111... in ternary.
