3/8 is closer to a half. 3/8 is one away from a half therefore 3/8 is closer to 1/2
A half.
It is closer to a half. 9/16=0.5625
1/2 is the same distance from 1 as from 0. It is not closer to either 1 or 0.
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.
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.

closer to zero
1/2 is the same distance from 1 as from 0. It is not closer to either 1 or 0.
1/7 in decimal form is approximately 0.143 0.143 is closer to 0.0 than 0.5 or 1. The answer is 0.
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.
neither exactly half way between both
5/8 is closer to 1/2
0.25 = 1/4 = 2/8 + 1/8 = 3/8 which is less than half, so it's closer to zero.
7/15 is closer to 1/2 than it is 0. so it rounds to 1/2.
1 over infinity
1/4 is exactly half way between 0 and 1/2.
