If you express the whole number w, as w/1, then there is no difference whatsoever.
They are the same. If you write the whole number p in the form of the fraction, p/1, you would see absolutely no difference.
The only generalisation posible is that it will always be a rational number. The product can be positive or negative; it can be a fraction or an integer, it can be larger or smaller.
A product is a binary operator. That means a product is the result of combining TWO numbers. You cannot have a product of just one number - whether it is a fraction or not is irrelevant.
round the fraction to the nearest whole number, then times the two whole number together

Any fraction can be multiplied by a whole number so that the product is a whole number. Simply multiply the fraction (in rational form) by its denominator.
how to write 6/9 as a product of a whole number and a unit fraction.
The answer can be another fraction and a whole number or it can be a whole number.
It is the first whole number divided by the denominator of the unit fraction. This could be a whole number or a fraction.
A decimal is similar to a fraction because they are both part of a whole number, not a whole number, just part of one. For example, 0.5 is the same thing as 1/2 , or half. This means both are only half of a whole number.
product of a fraction less than 1 and a whole number greater than or less than the whole Number
The only generalisation posible is that it will always be a rational number. The product can be positive or negative; it can be a fraction or an integer, it can be larger or smaller.

round the fraction to the nearest whole number, then times the two whole number together
Write the product of the whole number and fraction numerator over the denominator. If it is an improper fraction you may need to reduce it.
