Rounding Fractions to Whole Numbers

In this video, Mr. J explains how to round fractions between 0 and 1 to either 0 or 1. The key rule is that fractions equal to or greater than a half round up to 1, while those less than a half round down to 0. The video includes four examples: three-fourths rounds to 1, four-tenths rounds to 0, seven-seventeenths rounds to 0, and three-sixths rounds to 1. The video emphasizes understanding the concept of rounding fractions by comparing them to a half.
