No. 12.5 is nearer. But 12.5 is not the nearest because 12.05 is nearer. But again, 12.05 is not the nearest because 12.005 is nearer. Rational (and real) numbers are infinitely dense. That means that there are infinitely many numbers between any two numbers and so NO number is nearest to any other: it is always possible to find infinitely many numbers that are nearer.
