I mean is it possible to say i own 50% of an NFT for example ?

According to several formal implementations, ERC721 is not supposed to a divisible token by itself.

Although, you can deploy an ERC721 through an ERC20 and distribute its shares using the fungible ERC20 tokens.(not my idea, check below link)

  • This is strange because ERC1155 has decimals in metadata files...

  • You can ask the developers who have made those contracts.

Check out the ERC1155 contracts designed by Enjin, they provide a way to set up fractional ownership an asset in a single contract. OpenZeppelin implementation here

That being said, ERC721 can allow for decimals as stated in its EIP here: "An implementation may also include a function decimals that returns uint8(0) if its goal is to be more compatible with ERC-20 while supporting this standard."
