How can l use compatible numbers to estimate the quotient of a decimal and whole number?
Well, honey, it's simple. Round that decimal to the nearest whole number, then divide it by the whole number. For example, if you have 7.2 ÷ 3, round 7.2 to 7, then divide 7 by 3 to get your estimate. Easy peasy lemon squeezy!
How do you write 15000 as a whole number?
15,000 is already a whole number. A whole number is any number that is not a fraction or decimal. 15,00.96 would not be a whole number, but a decimal.

What can you find how finding a whole number estimate before your multiply the decimal can help you make sure your decimal placement is correct?
Not really.If you are competent in using the basic operations of arithmetic (+ - * /) and follow the riles as these apply to decimal numbers then the decimal point will be correctly placed and finding a whole number estimate will only mean additional calculations which serve no purpose. On the other hand, if you are not that competent then how can you be sure that the whole number estimate that you find is accurate?
What are the difference between a decimal and a whole number?
The difference is that all whole numbers are decimal numbers, but not all decimal numbers are whole numbers. For example a whole number such as 1 is a decimal number but a decimal number such as 1.5 is not a whole number.
Can a decimal number be a whole number?
No. A whole number is a number with no fractional (decimal) part. Therefore a decimal number can not be a whole number. Another view: 35.0 is a whole number AND a decimal. The fact that a number is a decimal does not automatically require it to have a fractional part. Even 35 is a decimal number (without a decimal point).
How do you change a whole number to a decimal?
You can't change a whole number to a decimal. A decimal and a whole number are both numbers. A decimal is just a number lower than a whole number, or a number in between two whole numbers.

When converting mixed fractions to decimals what happens to the whole number part of the fraction?
The whole number goes to the left of the decimal point.The whole number goes to the left of the decimal point.The whole number goes to the left of the decimal point.The whole number goes to the left of the decimal point.
Why is a decimal smaller than a whole number?
A decimal number is not always smaller than a whole number. This is a decimal number 2.45 The number on the left of the decimal point shows the whole numbers. The numbers on the right of the point shows the parts/fractions. This number is not a whole number .098 This number is a whole number 2.00 This number has whole numbers and parts/fractions of the whole 2.098
