Detailed Solution

The given data is the numbers 1032 and 1209.
We know that in the number line the whole numbers start from zero and continue infinitely with the difference between any two consecutive ones as 1.
We observe that the count of whole numbers between any two whole numbers excludes the two given numbers and includes only those in between them.
Thus, the count of whole numbers between any two whole numbers = (the difference between the two given ones)-1.
So, the number of whole numbers between 0 and 1 is 1-0-1=0.
Also, the number of whole numbers between 1 and 10 is 10-1-1=8.
Similarly, we find that the required number of whole numbers between 1209 and 1032 is as follows
1209-1032-1= 176
Therefore, the correct option is 2.
