To round to the nearest integer of 5, we are looking for numbers that round to 5 when rounded to the nearest whole number. The numbers that meet this criterion are those that fall in the range from 4.5 up to but not including 5.5.

Let's evaluate the provided numbers:

  1. 3.7 - Rounds to 4 (not in range)
  2. 7/2 (3.5) - Rounds to 4 (not in range)
  3. 5 9/10 (5.9) - Rounds to 6 (not in range)
  4. 4.1 - Rounds to 4 (not in range)
  5. 4 4/5 (4.8) - Rounds to 5 (in range)
  6. 3.9 - Rounds to 4 (not in range)
  7. 6 1/5 (6.2) - Rounds to 6 (not in range)
  8. 4.7 - Rounds to 5 (in range)
  9. 3 3/5 (3.6) - Rounds to 4 (not in range)
  10. 4.3 - Rounds to 4 (not in range)
  11. 6.1 - Rounds to 6 (not in range)
  12. 5 1/5 (5.2) - Rounds to 5 (in range)

The three numbers that round to 5 when rounded to the nearest integer are:

  1. 4 4/5 (4.8)
  2. 4.7
  3. 5 1/5 (5.2)

So, the numbers are 4.8, 4.7, and 5.2 (or 4 4/5, 4.7, and 5 1/5).
