So what is half of a quarter? It’s 1/8th. It’s 12.5 cents. It’s an eighth note. It’s a tiny, perfect piece of everything.
It’s also a reminder that math is not scary. It’s just a game of cut-and-paste. You cut a quarter, you paste half of it. Boom.
Now go find a pizza. Cut it into four. Then cut one slice in half. Eat that tiny piece. You earned it. And now you know exactly how much you just ate.
