Compare colon notation with fraction
I'm working on a job interview test and there is one answer which I just don't get.
The test states that statement below is true. To me it just seems wrong. No box is provided to check. Then how do I check it correct or wrong? Am I missing something here?
66:4 = 161/2

I think they meant to type "16 1/2" as in 16 1 2 :
66 : 4 66 4 = 60 4 + 6 4 = 15 + 3 2 = 16 1 2

The statement is false because
66 : 4 = 66 4 = 33 2 161 2
