Write 4 1/2 as a decimal.
Explanation
The decimal representation of a mixed number can be found by dividing the whole number part by the denominator and adding the resulting quotient to the fractional part. In this case, the whole number part is 4 and the fractional part is 1/2. Dividing 4 by 2 gives us 2, and adding this to the fractional part gives us 2 + 1/2 = 2.5.
