Types of Numbers (DRILL ON BOARD) Real Numbers Rational Numbers Irrational Numbers Integers Whole Numbers Natural Numbers
Real Numbers (R) All numbers used in everyday life, the set of all rational and irrational numbers. Ex: ½ , -3, 4.667, -2.12324
Rational Numbers (Q) Any number , where m and n are integers and n is a non-zero. The decimal form is either a terminating or repeating decimal. Ex: ½ , 2.555, 3.25252525
Irrational Numbers (I) Any number which can not be written as a fraction. The decimal form neither repeats or terminates. Ex: 2.34628789476373673245…
Integers (Z) All non-decimal or fractional numbers including all positive numbers, negative numbers and zero. Ex: {...-2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3, …}
All Integers except for all the negative numbers. Whole Numbers (W) All Integers except for all the negative numbers. Ex: {0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, ….}
All Integers except negative numbers and zero. Ex: {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, ….} Natural Numbers (N) All Integers except negative numbers and zero. Ex: {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, ….}
