This varies from state to state. While some states will release you after you've completed at least a third of your term, other states have laws which state that one must complete at least 85% of it his prison sentence, which may include only for violent offenses, or, as in the case with Florida and federal incarceration, for all felony offenses. But for states that allow them, prisoners are eligible for gain time, time off for good behavior, and other early release incentives they must earn, which can take off a substantial amount of prison time.

How much time do you serve in prison on six month sentence?

It is not likely you would receive a six month prison sentence on the state level. There are several states, such as Wisconsin, where if the judge does not specify a place of incarceration, the conviction is automatically a felony, and you would be required to serve this time in a prison environment. Chances are you would not leave quarantine, and you would serve six months.
