There can be no such thing as a nearest fraction since, given any fraction, it is always possible to find a fraction that is nearer.
The answer depends on which fractions you consider as benchmarks.
You round to the nearest whole number.
Equivalent fractions are fractions that are equal. So, 1/2 and 2/4 are equivalent.
example: 17/2 = 8 1/2. 17 divided by 2= 8 with 1 left over. This 1 goes over the denominaor which comes out to 8 1/2.
There are common fractions, improper fractions and equivalent fractions

Depending on how you write them, they are either called mixed fractions (e.g., 2 1/2), or improper fractions (e.g., 5/2).Depending on how you write them, they are either called mixed fractions (e.g., 2 1/2), or improper fractions (e.g., 5/2).Depending on how you write them, they are either called mixed fractions (e.g., 2 1/2), or improper fractions (e.g., 5/2).Depending on how you write them, they are either called mixed fractions (e.g., 2 1/2), or improper fractions (e.g., 5/2).

0.5 = 1/2 or 2/4 as fractions
A benchmark is an easy to work with number. you round fractions to the nearest benchmark and it will be very easy to add. i use 1/4, 1/2, 3/4, 1, 1 1/4, 1 1/2, 1 3/4, 2, 2 1/4, and so on as benchmarks.
Quite simply because you NEED fractions. Fractions exist everywhere whether you chose to acknowledge them or not.
Equivalent fractions are fractions which denote the same amount, such as 1/2, 2/4, 4/8 and so on.
