How to work it out

Ask how many times 2 fits into 61. 2 × 30 = 60, and 2 × 31 = 62 is too big, so 2 goes into 61 exactly 30 times with 61 − 60 = 1 left over.

Turning the remainder into a decimal

The remainder 1 is 1/2 of another 2, and 1 ÷ 2 = 0.5. So 61 ÷ 2 = 30 + 0.5 = 30.5.

Check your answer

Multiply back: 30 × 2 + 1 = 60 + 1 = 61. ✓
