Before answering these questions let's first learn what whole numbers are. These are the positive numbers starting from 0. Do you know the difference between natural numbers and whole numbers? Natural numbers are numbers that start from 1 and go up to infinity whereas whole numbers are numbers that start from 0 and go up to infinity. Now to find how many whole numbers lie between any two numbers we have to do subtraction.

We have already studied that whole numbers start from 0. So, whenever we have to find the whole number up to a particular digit, simply add one to that digit and we will get our answer.
For example, if we have to find a whole number up to 15, add one to 15.
1+15= 16. There are 16 whole numbers 15.
Let's discuss one more example to get more clarity on this concept.
How many whole numbers are there up to 78?
Again, to find the whole number in a particular digit add one to this number.
78+1 = 79. So, 79 wholes numbers are there up to 78.
There are 1001 whole numbers up to 1000. Add 1 to 1000.
1000+1=1001.

There are 1000 whole numbers up to 999. Add 1 to 999.
999+1=1000.
There are 101 whole numbers up to 100. Add 1 to 100.
100+1=101.
