Step 1

\frac{5}{10}

of a dollar will be equal to 50 cents because if we'll bring

\frac{5}{10}

to it's lowest terms it will be equal to:

\frac{1}{2}

which is half of anything, so, half of a dollar will be equal to 50 cents.
Verifying it:

1 dollar = 100 cents

Therefore:

50 cents \times 2 = 100 cents

100 cents = 100 cents

Hence, verified.

Step 1

\frac{5}{10} = \frac{1 \times 5}{2 \times 5} = \frac{1}{2}

\frac{5}{10}

of one dollar is the same as

\frac{1}{2}

of one dollar, i.e. 50c.
