If we can extract only the integers from numbers and place them besides original number cells, we can easily filter out integer numbers or decimal numbers by this helper column in Excel.

If you can extract the numbers after the decimal, and place the extracted numbers besides original number, we can easily filter integers or decimal numbers by this new helper column in Excel. Here, I will introduce Kutools for Excel's Extract Text utility to archive it.

We place the extracted numbers besides original column. See screenshot:

3. Select he cell above extracted numbers (Cell B1 in our case), and click Data > Filter. And then click the Arrow in the cell, and specify the filter rule as below screenshot shown:
