👉 In mathematics, a "nearness" or "distance" is a measure of how close something is to another object. It can be defined as the difference between two points in a space. For example, if you are measuring the distance between two objects, one might say that they are "close" because the first object is closer than the second. On the other hand, if they were "far", it would mean that the second object was further away from the first. Nearnesses
