To determine which fraction is closer to 1/2, we can find the absolute difference between each fraction and 1/2. The absolute difference between 3/8 and 1/2 is |3/8 - 1/2| = |3/8 - 4/8| = 1/8. The absolute difference between 1/2 and 1/2 is 0. Therefore, 1/2 is closer to 3/8 than 1/2.
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.
It is closer to 1/2
It is closer to 1 than it is to 0.
1 over 2 is = 1/2 which is 50% 2 over 3 is = 2/3 which is 66.6<- repeating bar % 2/3 is greater.
To determine which number 3/8 is closer to, we can find the absolute differences between 3/8 and each of the given numbers: 0, 1.5, and 1. The absolute difference between 3/8 and 0 is 3/8, the absolute difference between 3/8 and 1.5 is 9/8, and the absolute difference between 3/8 and 1 is 5/8. Therefore, 3/8 is closest to 1 out of the three options provided.
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.
3/16 is 0.1875 one half is 0.5, while 2 over 1 is 2. Therefore, one half is closer.
it's closer to 1/2 1/2 = 3/6 2/3 = 4/6 1 = 6/6 4 is closer to 3 so 2/3 is closer to 1/2
Closer to 1/2
It 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.
2/5 is closer.
It is closer to 1 than it is to 0.
negative 1 over 3
2
No, 2 over 1 is 2 and 3 over 1 is 3, so 3 is bigger than 2.
