CLASSIFICATION NUMBERS

In this lesson we’re gonna learnig about the different of classification of numbers which
include natural numbers, whole numbers, integers, rational numbers, irrational numbers and real
numbers.

1. NATURAL NUMBERS

Natural numbers include numbers such as 1,2,3,4,5 and so on. they are often refersed to as
counting numbers now natural numbers do not include 0 or any negative numbers as well as any
decimals so an easy way to remember this is to think of it like this we all naturally count things
starting from 1 and go on to 2,3,4,5,6 and so forth but rasely do we count starting from 0 there
fore this is the inner most bassic classification of numbers the next layer of numbers are the
whole number

2. WHOLE NUMBER

Whole number can often be denoted using this symbol. The calssification of whole number
are exactly like natural number, in that it includes all of the natural number and it also includes 0
so instead of starting from 1, whole number start from 0. another cool way to remember this is
to think about it like this whole numbers are exactly the same as natural numbers. except that
they start with the number looks like a whole there fore whole numbers include natural number
and this means that any natural number is also considered a whole numbers but not necessarlly
the other way around since 0 is not a natural number do note how ever that the classification of
these two are still a little bit hazy as some places might toach you that natural number in fact
include 0 disregarding the classification of whole numbers eatirelly it is common to see that in
set theory or in computer science since in these fields they actually do count starting from 0.

3. INTEGERS NUMBERS
Integers can often be denoted using this simbol. integers include all the same numbers as
whole numbers like 0,1,2,3,4,5,6 etc. except they also include all the negatives of them, as well
such as -1,-2,-3,-4,-5,-6 and so on, but again integers do not include decimals or fractions of
numbers.

4. RATIONAL NUMBERS

Rational numbers wich can be denoted using this symbol and again rational numbers
encompas all of the other classification that we've mentioned so far as well as decimals and
fractions how over the decimal numbers. must be numbers that can be expressed as a fraction
where P and Q. are integers and Q is not 0, so far example 17/3 is equal to 5,666 repeating and
since the numerator and denomenator are both integers this is in fact considered a rational
numbers. now where as this looks fairly organized with its repeating sixes even something like
19/17 wich yields this rather un predictable looking decimal would still be considered a natural
number and why because this is an integers and tells is also an integer that is not the to 0.

5. IRRATIONAL NUMBERS

Irrational numbers would be pleye and we know that phi is a never ending number that does
not repeat with constant decimal or in a pattern fashion an this is what makes it irrational the
square root of two also turn out to be an irrational number since it cannot be expressed as a
fraction and lastly the definition of real numbers is last classification that we'll talk about all
though there are some other classification that you might learn later on down the road

6. REAL NUMBERS

Real numbers are simply all of the rational and irrational numbers combined. so pay close
attention to how certain number sets are literally in the other since, but just remember that even
tought saying that a person in Tokyo must also be in japan is correct. the revers isn’t always
correct if this person is in japan it doesn’t necessarily mean that they are in Tokyo maybe they’re
in Osaka or wherever else in japan. similarly while we can say for example that all national
numbers are also integers we cannot say that all integers are natural numbers, the same appliens
to the rest of the layers of classification.
