To find the whole numbers between 32 and 53, we first identify the numbers that fall within this range. Whole numbers are non-negative integers starting from 0. In this case, the whole numbers greater than 32 and less than 53 include:
- 33
- 34
- 35
- 36
- 37
- 38
- 39
- 40
- 41
- 42
- 43
- 44
- 45
- 46
- 47
- 48
- 49
- 50
- 51
- 52
Counting these numbers, we see that there are exactly 20 whole numbers between 32 and 53. We excluded 32 and 53 themselves because the question specifically asks for numbers that lie in between.
