500 thousandths = 500/1000= 500 x 1/500 x 2= 1/2= halfNot only is it closest to a half, it is a half.
Closer to 1/2
Let's do the math: 1/5 = .20 0 = .00 1/2 = one half = .50 1/1 = one whole = 1.0 The distance between 1/5 and 0 is the shortest (only .20 away), and thus, 0 is the closest to 1/5.
1/2 x 3/7 = 3/14
5/7 is 42.86% more than 1/2 .
5/7 is closer to 1/2 than to 1.
