Let's just pretend that metric doesn't have fractions.

Not that they don't exist, but in my experience I have never seen them used, if something is, say, 1/2 liter you see it written as 50cl...

For burgers, I have seen

  • 150gr
  • 250gr
  • 2 x 150gr
  • 500gr
  • 1kg

But maybe it's only my experience and in other parts of Europe it's different

1/2 liter is usually marked as 0,5 liter.

I want a 0.5 liter burger, please.

SI says either 0.5 Liter or better 0.0005 m^3

Viertel Pfünder und Drittel Pfünder isjust as confusing.

There is also a metric pound but honestly people don't use it.
