3/8 is closer to a half. 3/8 is one away from a half therefore 3/8 is closer to 1/2
It is closer to 1/2
0
Is four eight closer to 0 or 1
It is closer to 1 than it is to 0.
It is closer to 1/2
1 - 5/6 = 1/6 1 - 1/3 = 1 - 2/6 = 4/6 5/6 is closer to 1
Closer is a comparative term. So you need another number to compare it with. 1/6 is closer to 0 than 100,000,000 but not closer than 0.00000000001
5/7 is closer to 1/2 than to 1.
The word closer tells that there are two numbers to compare. While 2 numbers are given, they are not compared directly. Maybe the number 1 is not compared, but is the reference point. So it could've asked: Is 0.599 or 1.24 closer to 1, for example. Or it could've asked: is 0.599 closer to 1 or to zero. Then the 1 and zero are being compared.
0.5 is exactly between 0 and 1. Anything less than 0.5 is closer to zero.
It is closer to a half. 9/16=0.5625
5/8 is closer to 1/2
On f horn 23 - 1 - O - 12 - 2- 1 - O -23 On Bb horn 23 - 1 -O -23 - 1 -O - 1 - 23 On double horn, the 3 octave Ab scale is 23 - 1 - O - T23 - T1 -T - O - 23 - 1 - O - 12 - 2- 1 - O - T23 - T1 - T - T23 -T1 - T - T - T23
Not necessarily: 0.999 is closer.
That depends how you define "close to". 12/15 = 4/5 = 0.8 So 12/15 is closer to 1 than to 0 or 0.5, but closer to 0.75 than 1.
A half.
