Question

Hello, I wanted an answer from a mathematician. The number 1.04 is closer to the number 1, 2, 1.25 or 1.5.

Answer 1

1 is the correct answer of this question

Answer 2

1

Explanation:

If you look at the differences between the numbers, which are;

1.04 - 1 = 0.4

2 - 1.04 = 0.96

1.25 - 1.04 = 0.21

1.5 - 1.04 = 0.46

The closest number would have the smallest difference, which is 1.04-1
