Oh, dude, 17.5 is closest to 18, like, obviously. I mean, unless you're looking for some deep philosophical answer about how 17.5 is actually equidistant from both 17 and 18 in some alternate universe, but like, who has time for that? Just round up and move on with your life, man.

17.5 is nearest to the whole number 18. When determining the nearest whole number, we consider the decimal portion of the number. Since 0.5 is exactly halfway between 0 and 1, we round up to the nearest whole number, which in this case is 18.
