The products of whole numbers are always whole numbers, but the quotients -- the answers you get when you divide one number by another -- depend upon the actual numbers and which is the dividend and which is the divisor. For example, 12 divided by 3 is 4, a whole number, but 3 divided by 12 is 1/4 or 0.25, a fraction.
