Any number which is a whole number (0, 8, 87, 453 ...and so) is an integer. Technically, integers also include negative whole numbers but it is unlikely that this is of concern in relation to this question.

In a percentage expression such as 23%, 76% then 23 and 76 are integers. With expressions such as 14.6%, 51.9% then the numbers are not integers.

The result of a percentage calculation may result in an integer solution,

14.5% of 5800 = 841 even though one of the terms is a non-integer number.

Equally, a calculation can result in a non-integer solution even when the opening terms are all integers such as 17% of 53 = 9.01
