The set of counting numbers is the positive integers. The set of whole numbers is the positive integers plus zero. The term "natural numbers" has been used interchangeably with both of those sets.
That can refer either to integers, or only to non-negative integers - basically, the counting numbers. (Integers includes negative numbers.) Since "whole numbers" has this ambiguity, it's best to avoid this term. The following is the answer.
What numbers are whole numbers? Whole numbers are numbers with no value after the decimal point. For example: 1 is a whole number. 1.2 is not a whole number. yes and 1.22 is not one and 1.22222222 is not one is only 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9, continue but i dont know if a negetive number counts as a whole number or zero if it counts as a whole number

How are decimals and whole numbers similar?
All whole numbers are decimal numbers.
Are rational numbers whole numbers?
The set of rational numbers includes all whole numbers, so SOME rational numbers will also be whole number. But not all rational numbers are whole numbers. So, as a rule, no, rational numbers are not whole numbers.
Why are different whole numbers not always a whole number?
Different whole numbers are always whole numbers, but I suspect you meant to ask about the difference between whole numbers. You can subtract two whole numbers and get a negative result. Whole numbers can't be negative.
Which couting numbers are also whole numbers?
Whole numbers can be positive or negative numbers. Numbers are whole as long as they have no fractins or decimals with them.
Do set of natural numbers contain sets of whole numbers?
No. Natural numbers are a subset of whole numbers. Negative numbers are whole numbers but not natural.
How are whole numbers rational numbers and integers related?
Whole numbers are the same as integers. Whole numbers are a proper subset of rational numbers.
Numbers with square root that are whole numbers?
