because opposites must be a integer/whole number no matter what.
A whole number can refer to all integers, including the opposites of natural numbers. This means the nearest whole number to -3.7 will be -4
The set of integers (ℤ) is the set of the positive whole numbers and their additive opposites (the negative whole numbers).
Apart from zero (which is its own opposite), the opposites of whole numbers are also whole numbers. You have the set of whole numbers which is also known as the set of integers.

Opposites
The set of whole numbers includes all their additive opposites. So the set is the same as the one you started with.
Apart from zero (which is its own opposite), the opposites of whole numbers are also whole numbers. You have the set of whole numbers which is also known as the set of integers.
It would be an integer (positive or negative whole number).
Assuming that you mean opposites (rather than oppisites), the answer will depend on what kind of opposites: additive opposites or multiplicative opposites.In the first case you have the same set as you started with: whole numbers.In the second, you will have the set that consists of the union ofall whole numbers,all unit fractions between -1 and +1. But, you have a problem with zero: its multiplicative opposite is not defined.

A whole number is called an integer. The opposite of a whole number is a negative integer. An example would be 4 and -4.
The set of integers (ℤ) is the set of the positive whole numbers and their additive opposites (the negative whole numbers).
A number which is not a whole number. It could be a fraction whose absolute value is less than one or a mixed (r improper) fraction, an irrational number, an imaginary or complex number, and so on.
Whole numbers are integers that do not include decimals or fractions as for example the whole numbers in the number line
