1/4 is closer.
First, convert all three fractions into having common denominators. The least common denominator of 1/4, 1/2, and 1/3 is 12. Convert each fraction into twelfths. 1/4 becomes 3/12. 1/2 becomes 6/12. 1/3 becomes 4/12. From here it should be clear that 1/4 (3/12) is closer to 1/3 (4/12) than 1/2 (6/12).
The difference between 1/4 and 1/3 is 1/12, which is smaller than the difference between 1/2 and 1/3, (difference = 2/12).
One fourth (.25) is closer to zero than one half (.5).
One fourth is not the answer. 1/4 is half of half. I am looking for half of a third. I think it's one-fourth.
1 half
One third is closer to a whole than one quarter, but farther from a whole than one half.
it is closer to one because one third isn't fully half and the one is a full one ! :)
The answer is one-half. It is twice as much as one-fourth. Consider one as a whole. If you divide it into two parts, you will get one half (1/2), if into three parts, you will get 1/3 (one-third), if into 4 parts, you will get 1/4 (one-fourth).
Well, honey, let me break it down for you. One fourth is closer to zero than it is to one half. Think of it like this: if you're walking on a number line, zero is like your next-door neighbor, while one half is a few houses down the street, and one is in a whole other neighborhood. So, one fourth is definitely cozying up to zero more than it is to one half.
The answer is 3.
this is a simple answer. you first do the problem one half of one third, which equals 0.166666667, then you do one fourth of one third, which equals 0.0833333333, then you do one fourth of 690, which equals 172.5 which would be your final answer. You need to take the problem step by step and solve it with a calculate or division to make it easier.

Yes, One half of a fourth is one eighth. A fourth of a half is one eighth aswell.
I'm not sur bout dat either
