Reason: First published version: the closure of a bounded subset of a metric space is bounded, with the same centre and radius.

Statement

Let (X,d)(X,d) be a metric space, and let Td\mathcal{T}_d be the collection of all subsets of XX that are open in (X,d)(X,d), which is a topology on XX by Metric Open Sets Form a Topology. Let AXA\subseteq X be bounded in (X,d)(X,d).

Then the closure clX(A)\operatorname{cl}_X(A) of AA in (X,Td)(X,\mathcal{T}_d) is bounded in (X,d)(X,d). More precisely, if xXx\in X and R>0R>0 are such that d(x,y)Rd(x,y)\le R for every yAy\in A, then d(x,z)Rd(x,z)\le R for every zclX(A)z\in\operatorname{cl}_X(A).
