Using an estimate ensures that the answer is about right. With decimals where the decimal point should go is difficult for a lot of people, so an estimate of the answer ensures that it is put in the right place.
in dividing decimals you never get a remainder and in dividing whole numbers you do. +++ More to the point perhaps, you are working in powers of 10 all the time.

If you are making use of long division method, the process of dividing a whole number is actually a subset of the process of dividing the decimals. While dividing both you may get a quotient with decimal places. Some exceptions to this do exist in case of whole numbers. Like when you are dividing 100 by 2, the quotient 50 has no decimal places.

It can be very helpful, so the question is inappropriate.
