neither
exactly half way between both
closer to zero
5/8 is closer to 1/2
1/2 is the same distance from 1 as from 0. It is not closer to either 1 or 0.
1/4 is exactly half way between 0 and 1/2.
A half.
It is closer to a half. 9/16=0.5625
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 half
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.
its closer to one by .5
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 1/2.
