Answer:

37.5

Step-by-step explanation:

If you cut 600 in half 4 times the first time it will be 300 because 600/2 is 300. The second time it will be 150 because 300/2 is 150. The third time it will be 75 because 150/2 is 75. The fourth time it will be 37.5 because 75/2 is 37.5, so that is the answer.

If this helps please give me brainliest. Thx :)
