what ever fraction has a bigger denominator- the bottom number- is closer to zero. for example, 1/4 is closer to zero than 1/3 because when you divide a Pizza by 4, you get less pizza each than if you divide it by 3 people.
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.
The fraction 4/8 is exactly midway between 0 and 1. It's not "closer" to either of them.
0.13. Because the decimal is in the same place for both numbers, it makes this question easy. Since 0.13 is a smaller fraction of a number, it is closer to 0.
.03 is closer to 0.
If the numerator is 0, the fraction equals 0.

The fraction closer to 0 than 1 is 1/8
It is closer to a half.
1 over infinity
The fraction 4/8 is exactly midway between 0 and 1. It's not "closer" to either of them.
A fraction is close to zero if the numerator is small or if the denominator is large, or both.
To determine if an improper fraction is closer to 0 or 1, you can convert it to a mixed number. If the fraction is closer to 0, the whole number part of the mixed number will be 0, and if it is closer to 1, the whole number part will be 1. For example, if you have the improper fraction 5/7, when converted to a mixed number it becomes 0 5/7, indicating it is closer to 0 than 1.
-- Before I can name one that's closer, you have to give me a fraction, so I know what fraction mine has to be closer than. -- There's no such thing as "closest", unless you're looking at a list of permitted choices that you're not sharing.
1/4 is exactly half way between 0 and 1/2.
2/5 is closer to 0.
0.13. Because the decimal is in the same place for both numbers, it makes this question easy. Since 0.13 is a smaller fraction of a number, it is closer to 0.
Rational numbers are infinitely dense and so there is no such number. If for example, you considered F1 to be the fraction that was closet to 0 then what about half that number? F2 = (F1)/2 is closer to 0. And then what about F3 = (F2)/2? This could go on for ever.
