In mathematics, a real number is a value of a continuous quantity that can represent a distance along a line.
A fraction represents a part of a whole or, more generally, any number of equal parts. When spoken in everyday English, a fraction describes how many parts of a certain size there are, for example, one-half, eight-fifths, three-quarters. Originally Answered: What is the difference between natural and whole numbers?
Natural numbers: all the non zero positive integers are called natural numbers.
Eg. 1,2,3,4…so on
Whole numbers: all non negative integers are called whole numbers.
Eg. 0,1,2,3…so on
The point to be remembered is that all natural numbers are whole numbers but all whole numbers are not natural numbers. For ease you can remember that 0 is a whole number but not a natural number
