Answer:[tex]48\frac{3}{5}[/tex]Explanations:
The numbers under consideration are:
[tex]48.4,\text{ 48}\frac{1}{2},\text{ 48.09, 48}\frac{3}{5}[/tex]
Converting all the numbers to decimal:
[tex]\begin{gathered} 48\frac{1}{2}=\text{ 48+0.5 = 48.5} \\ 48\frac{3}{5}=\text{ 48 + }0.6\text{ = 48.6} \end{gathered}[/tex]
Therefore, the numbers can be written as:
48.4, 48.5, 48.09, and 48.6
Out of these numbers, only 48.6 is closest to 49
[tex]48\frac{3}{5}\text{ is closest to 49}[/tex]
