Sagot :
Let us calculate the nearness of all the numbers provided
Number Nearnes
0.400 100
0.505 5
0.449 51
0.530 30
Thus 0.505 is the closest number to 0.5 in decimal terms
Number Nearnes
0.400 100
0.505 5
0.449 51
0.530 30
Thus 0.505 is the closest number to 0.5 in decimal terms
[tex]1)|0.5-0.4|=0.1\\
2)|0.5-0.505|=0.005\\
3)|0.5-0.48|=0.02\\
4)|0.5-0.53|=0.03[/tex]
As you see the seconds difference is the smallest therefore 0.505 is closest to .0.5
As you see the seconds difference is the smallest therefore 0.505 is closest to .0.5
