Question

Write the algebraic expression in the following case using variable constants and arithmetic operations.
One-half of the sum of numbers $x$ and $y$.

Answer 1

Given statement: One-half of the sum of numbers $x$ and $y$

Sum of given number can be written as $x+y$

One -half of the sum of numbers $=\frac{1}{2}(x+y)$

So the required expression is $\frac{1}{2}(x+y)$
