Yes, the given point 1/4 lie closer to 0& 1/2 than 1
A decimal number is a number that consists of a whole number and a fractional part separated by a point. For example – 3.5, 6.79, 78.32, etc.
Given here: Given the proper fraction as 1/4
To convert a fraction to a decimal, we'll just divide the numerator...by the denominator.
Thus 1/4=0.25
1/2=0.5
Now the difference between each of the given points is 1/2-1/4=0.25
And 1/4-0=0.25
Also 1-1/4=0.75
Thus the point 1/4 is equidistant from the points 0 and 1/2 but is 0.75 units away from 1
Hence, The given point 1/4 lie closer to 0& 1/2 than 1
Question:
Is 1/4 closer to 0, 1/2, 1?
