Answer: the fraction that is closer to one and a half is 2/4.

Explanation:

To determine which fraction is closer to one and a half, we can compare the given fractions to the decimal representation of 1.5.

1/2 = 0.5

4/2 = 2

6/2 = 3

2/4 = 0.5

Among the given fractions, 1/2 and 2/4 have decimal representations that are equal to 0.5, which is less than 1.5. Therefore, neither 1/2 nor 2/4 is closer to one and a half.

On the other hand, 4/2 has a decimal representation of 2, which is greater than 1.5. Similarly, 6/2 has a decimal representation of 3, which is even further from 1.5.
