12 = X11
Strike a line horizontally through the middle of X11 to give:
v11
----
^11
The top half becomes V11 which = 7
Therefore half of X11(12) is V11 (7)

If you divide it is half you get six but you can split it into 7 and 5 but it isn't half.

Or of course it would work if you were working in base 12.

The accountants at Enron could do it.
Also, I suspect the accountants at Exxon/Mobile do it on a daily basis.
