we have been asked to find the nearest whole number
The given number is [tex] 14\frac{17}{21} \\ [/tex]
This can be re-written as
[tex] 14\frac{17}{21}=14.8095\\ [/tex]
As we got the decimal part near to 1 as compared to to zero.
So on rounding the whole number is 15
Hence the nearest whole number is 15
