1.15
Count how many parts there are in total (both shaded and unshaded) and write this as the denominator (bottom number) of the fraction. Count how many shaded parts there are and write this as the numerator (top number) of the fraction. You now have the fraction of the whole that is shaded.
whole number
it separating the whole numbers from the fraction parts.
Decimals are there to show you a fraction. For example, 1 1/2 is the same as the decimal 1.5. It just shows you how close you are to a whole number in a different way than a fraction.
How ever many extra shaded parts there are, well, say one whole is 6/6, and you have 9 pieces, instead of 6/6 with 3 left over, it's 9/6. In math you would call it an improper fraction.

turn both fractions into decimals and then multiply!
52.7 is a fraction, not a whole number and so it cannot be expressed as a whole number.

Whole numbers
Rational numbers are numbers that can be written as a fraction. A whole number is a number with no decimals.
No because integers are whole numbers without decimals or fractionsNo. It's a fraction.
Of course! Without decimals, you couldn't calculate percentages or fractions. Decimals allow you to break a number up. A decimal is basically a fraction, and when you calculate fraction adding, subtraction, multiplication, and division, sometimes it is easier to calculate a fraction by first changing it to a decimal instead.
fraction and decimals are both have similarities because they both express part of a whole.
