Hey there!

"One half of a number" will be a number (x) divided by 2. This can also be shown as "0.5x" or "1/2x", whichever you prefer. 

"...decreased by 16" will be "– 16", making your full equation 0.5x – 16. Remember that terms like remainder, difference, and fewer will always mean subtraction. 

Hope this helped you out! :-)
