The correct answer is:  " 1/8 " .
__________________________________________________________
Note:  "4/9" is close to "1/2" .  Since "4/8 = 1/2" ;  and since "4.5/9" = "1/2" .

"1/8" is a MUCH SMALLER value than "1/2" ;  

and:  "1/8" is a much smaller value than "4/9".
__________________________________________________________
Hence, " 1/8" is much closer to "0" than "4/9" .
__________________________________________________________
The correct answer is:  "1/8" .
