Lets start by defining the terms.

Whole number:
a positive numbers, including zero, without any decimal or fractional parts.

Real number: all the numbers you can think of! They consist of zero (0), the positive and negative integers (-3, -1, 2, 4), and all the fractional and decimal values in between (0.4, 3.1415927, 1/2)

Rational number: any number that can be expressed as the quotient or fraction p/q of two integers
