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
[latex]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[/latex] As you see the seconds difference is the smallest therefore 0.505 is closest to .0.5
