make them all into decimal points, this allows you to compare them easier than in fraction form. this is done by dividing the denominator by the numerator.
3/7 = 0.43
0 = 0.00
1/2 = 0.5
1 = 1.00
your answer would be closer to 1.2

What you can do is convert the fraction into a decimal, and once that fraction is converted into a decimal, you would get (rounded to the nearest hundred) : 0.43.

Since
(1)/(2) converted into a decimal is 0.50, 1 is a whole number, and 0 is 0, the closest is
(1)/(2)
