2/5 is the same 0.4 . Now you can drop it right in
and see where it sits on that list.
one half
9 over 6 is 9 divided by 6 which equals 1.5 or 1 1/2 (over 1)
closest to 1
my answer is it closer to 0
One half as a whole number is 0.5. Whole numbers are non-negative integers (0, 1, 2, 3, etc.), and since one half is not a whole number, it is represented as a decimal or fraction rather than a whole number.
2 fifths is equivalent to 0.4, which is closer to 0 than it is to 0.5 (1 half) or 1. To determine this, you can think of the number line where 0 is closer to 0.4 than 0.5, making 0 the closest whole number.
To determine if 3 over 5 is closer to 0, 1/2, or 1 whole, we can convert 3/5 to decimal form, which equals 0.6. Comparing this to the given options, 0.6 is closer to 1/2 (0.5) than it is to 1 whole (1.0). Therefore, 3 over 5 is closer to 1/2 than to 0 or 1 whole.
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.
If 0, half or 1 refers to inches, the answer is 0.
one half
zero aka 0
5/8 is closest to a half.
9 over 6 is 9 divided by 6 which equals 1.5 or 1 1/2 (over 1)
closest to 1
There is no possible answer. For any given fraction, half that fraction is another fraction and it will be closer to 0. And then half of that will be closer still, and then half of that ... . Hope you get the idea.
my answer is it closer to 0
1 over 2
