Finding a fractional part of a set involves determining a portion of a specific collection of items, which may vary in size and composition, such as finding 1/4 of a group of 20 apples. In contrast, finding a fractional part of a whole refers to calculating a portion of a complete unit, like finding 1/4 of the number 100. While both processes involve multiplication by a fraction, the context differs: one deals with discrete items, and the other with a singular numerical value. Thus, the results can yield different interpretations based on whether the context is a set or a whole.
A whole number with a fractional part attached is called a mixed number. Hope this helps!
A whole number is a number that has no fractional or decimal part.
Whole numbers contain no fractional part as do decimals
A decimal number is a way of representing numbers so that the place value of any digit is ten times that of the digit to its right. You can have whole numbers in binary, octal, hexadecimal etc bases. A decimal number may or may not have a fractional part. A whole number cannot have a fractional part.

A fractional portion is part of a whole portion
A whole number with a fractional part attached is called a mixed number. Hope this helps!
You cannot. A whole number cannot have a fractional part whereas a mixed number must have a fractional part.
They are different ways of finding the part of a whole
A whole number is a number that has no fractional or decimal part.
Multiply the whole number part by the denominator of the fractional part and add the result to the numerator of the fractional part.
That's because of the Associative Property of Multiplication. One third of six equals six times one third.
Whole numbers contain no fractional part as do decimals
Yes. There's no fractional part.
That means it has no decimal or fractional part.
If the first digit in the fractional part of 8.36 is 5 or above, then we add 1 to the integer part and remove the fractional part to get the answer. The first digit in the fractional part is 3 and 3 is less than 5. Therefore, we simply remove the fractional part to get 8.36 rounded to the nearest whole number as: 8. Now can you understand???
