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.
No a decimal is smaller than a whole number.
No. The '3' before the decimal point is a whole number. The '14' after the decimal point is a piece of a number.
No, a whole number would not have a decimal point
39 is a whole number as in not a fraction or decimal.
Yes
The answer depends on what the decimal is: the processes for 9999.02 and 0.02 are very different.

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.
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).
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.
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?
Dividing a decimal by a whole number is the same as multiplying the decimal by the whole number's reciprocal. Convert that fraction to its decimal equivalent and proceed.
A decimal can only be a whole number when that whole number is written as 1.0, 2.0, 3.0, etc.
a decimal is part of a whole number e.g. 0.5 is half a whole numbera whole number is just a normal number e.g. 1, 2, 5, 8, 14, 56 etc. A whole number is on the left side of the dot and the decimal is on the right.Example: whole number decimal decimal number 43 . 684
