1/7 in decimal form is approximately 0.143
0.143 is closer to 0.0 than 0.5 or 1.
The answer is 0.
closer to zero
2/5 is less than half so would be closer to 0 than 1.
2/5 is closer to 0.
500 thousandths = 500/1000= 500 x 1/500 x 2= 1/2= halfNot only is it closest to a half, it is a half.
0.67 is closer to 1 because 0.67 is less than 1 whereas it is farther away from both 0 and 12.
3/8 is closer to a half. 3/8 is one away from a half therefore 3/8 is closer to 1/2
closer to zero
A half.
It is closer to a half. 9/16=0.5625
1/2 is the same distance from 1 as from 0. It is not closer to either 1 or 0.
neither exactly half way between both
5/8 is closer to 1/2
1/4 is exactly half way between 0 and 1/2.
2/5 is less than half so would be closer to 0 than 1.
Let's say that you are rounding 2/5. You find half of 5 which is 2.5. Then you see if 2 is closer to 0, 2.5/5, or 1. It is closer to 2.5, so you would say that 2.5 is half of five, so your answer is 1/2. If you are doing 1/7, 1 is obviously closer to 0, so your answer would be 0.
2/5 is closer to 0.
0.67 is closer to 1 than 0, but it is not closer to 1-2.
