Hello! So, looking at 13.5, if you break it apart by place value, you know that 0.5 = ½. 13 would just be 13 as a whole number. 13.50 as a decimal is 13 ½. This is in mixed number form. There is also improper fraction form, but mixed number form is most appropriate in this case.
[tex]13.5 = \frac{135}{10} = \frac{27}{2} =13* \frac{1}{2} [/tex]
