Example Question #2 :Integers And Types Of Numbers
Which of the following isnota natural number?
Natural numbers are considered the "counting numbers". They are all of the integers from 1 until infinity. 0 and negative integers are not natural numbers, therefore, the answer to this problem is
Example Question #1 :Integers And Types Of Numbers

integer
Natural numbers are the counting numbers from
Example Question #4 :Integers And Types Of Numbers
Which of these numbers is an integer but not a whole number?
The whole numbers are the elements of the set
The integers are the the elements of the set
The numbers that belong to the former but not the latter are exactly the set of negative integers. Of the given choices, only
Example Question #5 :Integers And Types Of Numbers
Evaluate:
First evaluate everything inside of the absolute value. 3-5=-2.
The absolute value then turns all negative numbers into a positive number, so the -2 becomes a positive 2.
Example Question #6 :Integers And Types Of Numbers
Ifaandbare even integers, what must be odd?
The sum (or difference) or 2 even integers is even. Similarly, the product (or quotient) of 2 even integers is also even; therefore the answer must be
For example, if
