Final answer:

The whole number with the greatest prime factor between 1 and 30 is any number that has 29 as a factor, such as 29 itself or any multiple of 29 like 58.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question seeks to identify the whole number with the greatest prime factor between 1 and 30. The largest prime number in this range is 29.

Thus, the whole number that we are looking for would be a number that has 29 as a factor. An example of such a number would be 29 itself, as any number is a multiple of its own.

However, if we want to find a number that has 29 as a proper factor (excluding the number itself), we can look for multiples of 29 such as 58, 87, and so on.

To provide a more concrete response, we can confirm that 29 is indeed the largest prime factor we can find between 1 and 30, and the whole number that has 29 as a factor could simply be 29 or any multiple of 29 that remains a whole number.
