    Names of numbers
    My son has a math problem that asks five different names of 7.5. I am having a problem helping him figure out what he is missing.

    This is what he has so far: 7.5, 7 1/2, seven ones and five tenths, seven and one-half

    HELP??

    How about
    * Half of 15
    * Six and 1.5
    * Thirty six fifths, etc.

    ... are those acceptable "names"?
