Twice means 2 x
Half means 1/2
Which, they cancel each other out.
Because twice a half is a whole, or 1.
So, one and a half times 1 is 1.5

2 times the half, cancels each other out, so it would be 1 and a half

Well, twice the half of anything comes back to the anything you started with !
It's like saying "what's three times the third of..."

twice = 2x
the half of = 1/2
one and a half = 1-1/2
2(1/2)(1-1/2) = 1-1/2 (one and a half)

It's always the original number -- in this case, one and a half.
