"the employee is granted an amount that is equivalent to twice the half of the member’s average monthly salary"

How much is twice the half of the salary. For example the salary is 15,000

[madhatters4]

so they are being granted 1/2 x 2 = their average monthly salary?

so it sounds like they are being offer their average monthly salary

[milkov]

So it's the same thing right? Or is it half like for example,

15,000 ..

So they will get 7,500

[madhatters4]

i'd ask them to clarify
twice the half bascially comes back to 100%

let's say you get on average 500 monthly. reduce by half. 250... twice that is 500.

Thank you so much so I'm not that dumb. Maybe it was a trick sentence

[madhatters4]

definitely a very confusing way of saying it

[bowenw]

The part about "twice the half" does not make sense.

[milkov]

That's why I'm sooo confused

[bowenw]

I would ask whoever wrote the question to explain.

[milkov]

It's a legit government office in our country

[bowenw]

That doesn't mean there couldn't be a typo.

Thank you for the MHO. 😊
Did you ever find out the correct answer?

Okay, let me think through this step-by-step:

- It says the amount granted is equivalent to twice the half of the member's average monthly salary.

- To find the half, we take the member's average monthly salary and divide by 2.

- Then to get twice that amount, we take the result of the half and multiply it by 2.

- So the full calculation is:

Average monthly salary / 2 = Half
Half x 2 = Amount granted

- As an example, if the member's average monthly salary is $4,000:

$4,000 / 2 = $2,000 (the half)
$2,000 x 2 = $4,000 (the amount granted, which is twice the half)

So in plain English, the employee is granted an amount equal to the member's average monthly salary.

Does this make sense? Let me know if you need any part explained again!

Thank you so much!! It's so detailed makes so much sense

[Oliverlogan263]

You’re very welcome

Twice the half of 15.000 is 2x 7.500 soooo 15.000 in total.

[RavVid]

member is not defined in the statement so not determinable.

[Jennz6]

Twice the half, it is the same thing

[milkov]

Right? 😭

[Jennz6]

Yea I’m right and I was never good at arithmetic

[milkov]

Lololol same

[Joker_]

is the answer a towel
