What is a whole number?
A whole number is any number that’s not a fraction or a decimal. These numbers are a subset of the integers, and they’re used to count things. Here are some examples of whole numbers: 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, and so on.
Which is the smallest whole number?
The smallest whole number is zero! The number zero is considered a whole number because it doesn’t have any fractional or decimal parts. It’s the starting point for all whole numbers.
Every natural number is a whole number?
Every natural number is a whole number. Natural numbers are all the positive integers, starting with 1 and going up (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, and so on). Whole numbers include all the natural numbers plus zero.
Every rational number is a whole number?
Not every rational number is a whole number. A rational number is any number that can be written as a fraction, like ½ or 3/4. But not all rational numbers are whole numbers, because whole numbers are integers and they have to be positive, negative, or zero (not fractions).
All natural numbers are whole numbers?
Every natural number is a whole number. Natural numbers are just the positive integers starting at 1 (1, 2, 3, 4, and so on), and whole numbers are natural numbers plus zero.
Every integer is a whole number?
No, not every integer is a whole number.
