Is one half less than one fifth?

No, one half is not less than one fifth. In fact, one half (0.5) is greater than one fifth (0.2). When comparing the two fractions, one half represents a larger portion of a whole than one fifth does.


How do you know that a fraction is closest to one half?

In order to compare two fractions, you have to convert them so that they have the same denominator, which is to say, they are the same kind of fraction, whether that is thirds, quarters, fifths, etc. Let's say that I want to compare 2/9 with 1/5. I can make them both into 45ths. Multiply the 2/9 by 5/5 and you get 10/45. Multiply the 1/5 by 9/9 and you get 9/45. Now you can compare, because 10/45 is obvious 1/45 larger than 9/45. In the example given, since both fractions are less than a half, the larger one is closer to a half. If I had two fractions that were both larger than a half, then the smaller one is closer to a half. What if I have a fraction that is larger than a half and another fraction that is smaller than a half, and I want to know which is closer to a half? I would have to convert all 3 fractions (half is also a fraction) so that they have common denominators, then I can easily subtract a candidate fraction from a half, or subtract a half from it, and see which gives the biggest difference.

Is 1 half bigger than 1 fourth?

Yes, one half is bigger than one fourth. When comparing the two fractions, one half (1/2) equals 0.5, while one fourth (1/4) equals 0.25. Since 0.5 is greater than 0.25, one half is indeed larger than one fourth.
