5 over 8 can't be a whole number, as it is a fraction, a part of the whole.Slice a pie into 8 pieces. Each piece is an 8th of the whole pie. Only when the pie is whole can it be said to be a whole number - which would be 8. Remove a slice and the pie becomes a fraction.
37/8 = 4.625 which can be rounded to 5 as a whole number.
why are you asking solve it yourself
I assume you are referring to the fraction 5/8th. If 8 is the whole then 5 is five parts of the whole.
nope, its a fraction... think of it as 5 divided by eight. which is equal to 0.625 or 62.5% in order to make a whole number just add 3/8
uhhhh. no. 5 over 8 = 5/8 = .625 a whole number has no decimal numbers.

The whole number is 5.
37/8 = 4.625 which can be rounded to 5 as a whole number.
40/5 = 8, a whole number.

3/8 is not a whole number, so no whole number is equivalent to it.
8 goes into 29 3 whole times with 5 left over. Therefore we write this as a mixed number as: 3 5/8 (Three and five eighths).
24/8 is 3 as a whole number.
46/8 = 5 and 3/4
