I dont believe its a fraction, because they want us to demonstrate it with examples and show how it works for one or more number systems and not for others. You cant do that with a fraction.

You shoud go to google and type rational and whole numbers. It's more precise and truthful.

whole numbers are fractions with the denominator of 1. Rational numbers = a/b where b is the element of real numbers except 0.

Rational numbers include integers, terminating decimals, and repeating decimals as well as fractions. Whole numbers include only zero and the positive integers. Hope this helps.
