if the number above the bottom number is smaller than half of the bottom number, the fraction is less than half. For example, say the fraction is 3/8, half of the bottom number is 4. 3 is smaller than 4 therefore the fraction is less than half.
A third is less than a half, if that's what you meant
It is n/2 - 3
3 inches to the nearest inch and 3 inches to the nearest half inch both refer to a length not less than 2.5 inches and less than 3.5 inches. 3 inches to the nearest quarter inch refers to a length not less than 2.75 inches and less than 3.25 inches.
That depends on that is in your set. ( However, 1/3 is always less than 1/2. )

One half.

1/3
3/4
less than. 1/2 = 0.5, 17/3 = 5.667 0.5 is less than 5.667
2/3 x 3/5
Half (1/2 or .5) is greater than 3/7 (.429...)
5/8
No. One thrid is 331/3% less than one half.
It is n/2 - 3
