Answer:

A is closer to 1/2

Explanation:

2/15 + 1/3 = ?

Make the denominator equal

2/15 + 5/15 = 7/ 15

6/7 - 1/3

MAke the denominator equal

18/21 - 7/21 = 11/21

MAke the denominator equal

147/315

165/315

Exactly half is 157.5 / 315

165 - 157.5 = 7.5

157.5 - 147 = 10.25

That means that A is closer to half
