this can not be written as a whole number as 0.5 or one half is less than the first whole number one (1)
One half usually rounds up, that is to One, the next whole number.
You'd never ask someone to write "one half" as a whole number, because it isn't one. Neither is 8.86 a whole number. If it were one, then it would be written as one.
No, to be an integer it would have to be a whole number.
One and one half is 1.5. 1.5 rounded to the nearest whole number is 2. When the number is 5 or more you round up.
We're hoping that nobody ever taught you that every fraction has a "whole number" connected to it somehow. It doesn't. Let's put it as simply as we can: If you have one half of a pizza, then how many whole pizzas is that ? And if you have one half of a dollar, then how many whole dollars is that ? One half is just what it says . . . one half. There is no whole number for it. You'd need to get another half from somewhere and put them together just to make the smallest whole number there is.
No, it is not.
Six and a half is an improper fraction. It is not a whole number and cannot be made into one.

Four and one-half cannot be represented by a whole number. It can be represented by 4.5 or the improper fraction 9/2
1/2 = .5 1/2 is a half a whole, and one whole number is 1. so half is 0.5
One half usually rounds up, that is to One, the next whole number.

number of fourths needed to make 2 whole and one half = 10
One and one half is 1.5. 1.5 rounded to the nearest whole number is 2. When the number is 5 or more you round up.
5 over 2 is not a whole number. simplified it is 2 and one half or 2.5
