2.4
5÷2/5=25/2=12½ or 12.5 ... not a whole number
all of the whole numbers that 12 can be divided by to give a whole number. as 1 x 12 = 12; 2 x 6 = 12; 2 x 4 = 12 the factors of 12 are 1,2,3,4,6,12.
1 is a multiple because there is a whole number, really. There is 1 of that number, so that number times 1 is that number. Example: Whole number: 2 2 x 1 (since there is only one 2) = 2.
5 and 1/2
1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12
The only answers are 1 and 2. Meaning 1 and 2 are the only numbers that you can divide 170 and 12 by and get whole numbers (no decimals) as answers. 170 / 1 = 170 12 / 1 = 12 170 / 2 = 85 12 / 2 = 6 Try it with any other number and you'll see that at least one of your answers will not be a whole number.
12/10 does not equal a whole number.
