Question

why is -4 not a whole number

Answer 1

[AI-generated answer — Bot GPT 3.5]

A whole number is any positive or negative number without any fractional or decimal parts. Whole numbers include zero (0) and all positive numbers without decimal or fractional parts (1, 2, 3, etc.).

Since -4 has a negative sign, it is not considered a whole number. It falls under the category of integers, which include both positive and negative whole numbers along with zero.
