Question

How many whole numbers are there between -2 and 3?

• A. 0.0
• B. 1
• C. 2
• D. 3

Answer 1

The correct option is D 3

Whole numbers are positive numbers including zero without any decimal or fractional parts. The set of whole numbers is represented mathematically by the set: {0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5...}.
Now, numbers between -2 and 3 are -1, 0, 1 and 2
Here, -1 is not a whole number.
$\Rightarrow$ The whole numbers between -2 and 3 are 0, 1 and 2.
$\therefore$ There are three whole numbers between -2 and 3.
