Write 2 ways in which whole numbers and decimal numbers are different
Whole numbers are a proper subset of decimal numbers. All whole numbers are decimal numbers but not all decimal numbers are whole numbers.
Whole numbers are a proper subset of decimals.
they are the same because they both have whole numbers
Whole numbers include zero (0), natural numbers don't.
"Counting numbers" are specifically restricted to positive numbers - sometimes including zero. Whole numbers include negative whole numbers.
Mixed numbers have fractional parts that must be compared; whole numbers do not.
Yes, any two whole numbers added together will equal a whole number.
whole numbers are the numbers that start from 0 (0,1,2,3,4.......) and natural numbers are the numbers that start from 1 (1,2,3,4,5......)
One way they are different is that decimals are "parts of a whole" not necessarily a whole.
Simply put 1 under the whole number and then cross multiply for instance 4*1/16 is the same as 4/1*1/16 which is 4/16 and can be simplified to 1/4
